| Opmerkingen |
Tønder's municipal paper money of 1812 belongs to the broader Danish emergency currency wave triggered by the state bankruptcy of 5 January 1813 — more precisely, the fiscal chaos that preceded it, as the Napoleonic Wars had thoroughly wrecked Danish state finances and forced local authorities to paper over the coin shortage themselves. Small copper and silver denominations had largely vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted, leaving towns like Tønder to fill the gap with locally issued scrip.
Municipal issues from Schleswig-Holstein at this level of denomination are poorly documented in surviving records. The 12 Schilling sits in the awkward middle ground between the local commercial note and true emergency coinage — not quite either, and rarely preserved.
