Polizeiliches Durchgangslager Amersfoort was a German-run transit and punishment camp in the occupied Netherlands, notorious for its brutality even by the standards of the camp system. This scrip was introduced in 1944 as part of the controlled internal economy imposed on prisoners — a mechanism that gave the appearance of compensation for forced labor while ensuring any "earnings" could only be spent within the camp's own canteen, on items the administration chose to supply.
The printing was done on-site at Amersfoort, not by an outside security printer. That origin shows in the crude execution. Camp scrip of this type was designed to be non-transferable and worthless outside the wire — and it was.
