Antique Banknote 1916 Set Austro-Hungarian Deutschosterreich Overprint Kronen Lot 2pc

Own a piece of the post-WWI era from the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. These notes feature the historic red "DEUTSCHÖSTERREICH" (German-Austria) overprint, used to validate imperial currency for the new republic. If your note had the red stamp, it was "good" in the new Republic of Austria. If it didn't, it was just a worthless piece of old empire paper.

The denominations are featured in German, Hungarian, Czech, Polish, and other regional languages.
