Clausthal-Zellerfeld 10 Pfennig Notgeld Stamp

Germany · 1922 · 10 Pfennig

The stamp is circular, featuring the town name 'Clausthal-Zellerfeld' at the top, the denomination '10 Pfg.' at the bottom, and the number '10' prominently in the center. The word 'Notgeld' is also visible.

This stamp is a Notgeld (emergency money) issue from Clausthal-Zellerfeld, likely issued during the hyperinflation period in Germany after World War I. Local authorities often issued such stamps and currency due to a shortage of official coinage and rapidly depreciating national currency.
