| Comments |
St. Aegyd am Neuwald is a small market town in the Lilienfeld district of Lower Austria, and this 10 Heller note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities from 1914 onward as small-denomination coinage vanished from circulation almost overnight after the outbreak of war. Local authorities were left with no practical choice but to print their own.
W. Kleber's designer credit is unusual for a note of this size and origin — most rural Austrian Notgeld of this period came from generic printers with no named artist. Whether Kleber was a local figure or a contracted illustrator is not currently documented.
