| Comments |
The MS Jutlandia was a Danish passenger ferry converted into a hospital ship and deployed to Korea in 1951 under the auspices of the Danish Red Cross — one of the few neutral medical contributions to the UN effort. This coupon circulated as an internal scrip aboard the vessel, a self-contained economy serving staff, volunteers, and medical personnel who had no practical access to conventional currency while at sea or in Korean waters.
Small-denomination shipboard scrip of this kind was rarely preserved deliberately. Most was spent, lost, or discarded at the end of deployment rotations.
