Landfriedstetten is a small village in Lower Austria, and like hundreds of comparable communities, it issued Notgeld during the acute small-change shortage that gripped Austria between roughly 1919 and 1922. Municipal issues of this kind were authorized locally rather than by a central banking authority, which is why two village officials — rather than any finance ministry functionary — signed the notes. Josef Doppler and Karl Schober would almost certainly have been the Bürgermeister and a council member, though their exact roles are unconfirmed in surviving records.
Landfriedstetten issues are among the rarer Lower Austrian village Notgeld, with very limited documented survivor populations.
