Oeffa bills information

Öffa bills ("ö" is a Germanic umlaut that can be transcribed "oe") or job-creation bills were promissory notes created in 1932 by the German government. They were aimed at additional fund-raising for public building initiatives and later for job creation schemes.^[1]

The Öffa bills were the blueprint for the Mefo bills which followed the same scheme.^[2]
