Hamideh Super Mart was one of thousands of small ethnic grocery retailers operating in Chicago during the late twentieth century that issued their own scrip to handle fractional change — a practice with roots in the Depression-era "trade tokens" of the 1930s but which persisted quietly in immigrant-owned retail well into the 1990s. Private merchant scrip of this type occupied a legal gray area: not technically currency, but functionally used as such within a single store or small neighborhood network.
Paper cent scrip from individual grocers is almost never formally cataloged, and surviving examples are genuinely uncommon — not because they were rare in issue, but because nobody kept them.
