Mathias Bühn is an extremely committed collector from Dresden, who has been working on the cataloging of Saxon paper money (including emergency money) for around twenty
years.
As a preprint of the forthcoming Mammut work with around 2000 book pages, a brochure about the state paper money of Saxony was published in a very limited and almost sold-out
edition.
48 pages, illustrated in full color, format 210 mm x 296 mm, brochure, Dresden 2020, without ISBN, price: 18.00 euros
The very detailed subtitle describes what the catalog lists in terms of issuers: "Catalog of the Churfürstlich-Sächsische Cassen-Billets, the Leipziger Kassen-Verein
(Leipziger Cassenverein), the Leipziger Bank, the Leipzig-Dresdner Eisenbahn-Compagnie, the Landesstandsische Bank des Könihl.-Sächs. Markgrafthums Oberlausitz, the Chemnitzer
Stadtbank, the Sächsische Bank zu Dresden, the Sächsische Staatsbank, the Sächsische Staatsbank Leipzig, the Sächsische Staatsschulverwaltung, the Sächsischen
Finanzministerium".
Simply put, all forms of Saxon banknotes and state paper money are listed, starting with the Churfürstlich Sächsische Cassen-Billets from 1772 to the emergency expenditure of
the Sächsische Staatsbank at the end of the Second World War.
The author lists the variants in detail, e.g. even the signature variants for the Cassen billets and various no signs, plungers and numerators as well as known and likely
series.
From a technical point of view, it provides the best cataloging on this topic to date. The assessments were made in three degrees of maintenance in euros.
The preprint makes curious about the entire Saxon paper money catalog, which will also be illustrated in full color. Experienced collectors know that Saxony was the country
with the most emergency money expenditure in Germany during the inflation period. The meticulous work on this topic, which has been going on for over two decades, cannot therefore
be overestimated.
