Camp Amirabad was a U.S. Army installation north of Tehran, operational from 1942 as part of the Persian Corridor supply route funneling Lend-Lease materiel into the Soviet Union. The Officers' Mess scrip in this denomination — an awkward 1.50 Rials that has no equivalent in standard Iranian coinage or banknote series — points directly to the practical realities of running a canteen economy where change in local currency was chronically unavailable and small transactions needed a medium the host nation's banking system couldn't efficiently supply.
Mess scrip of this type was redeemable only within the camp and had no legal standing outside it.
