NORDERNEY ISLAND / NORTH SEA / GERMANY => local notes also named NOTGELD (see info. at the bottom) with limited validity Oct. 1, 1922, with Jewish stars. Later as we know Jewish people were hunted by Germans and exterminated. Below some more information on the Jewish community and the owner of the hotel presented on the note:
Notgeld (German for 'emergency money' or 'necessity money') is money issued by an institution in a time of economic or political cri-sis. The issuing institution is usually one without official sanction from the central government. This usually occurs when not enough state-produced money is available from the central bank. In parti-cular, notgeld generally refers to money produced in Germany and Austria during World War I and the Interwar period. Issuing institu-tions could be a town's savings banks, municipalities and private or state-owned firms. Nearly all issues contained an expiry date, after which time they were invalid. Issues without dates ordinarily had an expiry announced in a newspaper or at the place of issuance.
