| Opmerkingen |
Camp de Coëtquidan, located on the Breton moorland of Morbihan, was a French military base converted into a prisoner-of-war camp during the First World War. The 10th Military Region administered POW facilities across a broad stretch of western France, and these small-denomination notes were issued internally to allow prisoners to purchase canteen goods — a system imposed partly to prevent hoarding of French legal tender and partly to limit escape resources.
Emergency POW camp scrip of this regional type was rarely preserved by either prisoners or guards. Paper quality was poor by design, and surviving examples frequently show heavy fold wear from canteen use.
