Mauthausen is a small market town on the Danube in Upper Austria, and its decision to issue Notgeld during the currency chaos of 1920–1921 was purely practical — the national coinage had effectively vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted, and small transactions had become impossible without local emergency issues. Hundreds of Austrian municipalities did the same thing in this period, which makes the Mauthausen issues common in type but always locally specific in detail.
The official stamp functions as the sole security device — rudimentary even by Notgeld standards, but adequate for a community where the issuer was known and trusted by sight.
