Krumau am Kamp is a small village in Lower Austria, and like hundreds of similar municipalities, it issued its own emergency small change notes — Notgeld — during the currency disruption of the First World War and its aftermath, when coins disappeared from circulation almost entirely. These hyperlocal issues were produced in tiny quantities, authorized by village councils with no banking infrastructure, and often printed by whatever local press was available.
The JPR0487c designation within the Jaksch corpus suggests this is one of several denominations in the Krumau am Kamp series, the 20 Heller being the most common face value across Austrian municipal issues of this type.
