Stefan Angerer was a Nürnberg-based firm that issued this small-denomination emergency note — Kleingeldersatzschein — during the acute coin shortage that gripped Germany in 1917 and 1918. Municipal and commercial issuers alike flooded the market with such scrip, and the Bieling-Dietz printing house in Nürnberg supplied a significant number of local firms with competent if unshowy production work.
Commercial Notgeld issued by private businesses rather than municipalities tends to survive in lower quantities than the more widely distributed civic issues, since redemption was the issuer's direct liability and firms had strong incentive to retire outstanding notes promptly.
