Opmerkingen

Pik-Kwik was a regional convenience store chain that, like dozens of small American retailers during the coin shortage of 1964–1965, issued its own paper fractional currency to make change. The federal government had effectively created the problem by slowing silver coinage production while demand surged, and small merchants bore the inconvenience directly. Store-issued paper cents of this type were tolerated rather than sanctioned — no federal authority approved them, and their legal standing was genuinely ambiguous.

Waterbury, Connecticut examples are localized enough that surviving specimens turn up almost exclusively in regional collections.
