Plassenburg, the Renaissance hilltop fortress above Kulmbach in Bavaria, served as an officers' prisoner-of-war camp during the First World War — the "K." in the issuer name abbreviates "Königlich" (Royal), reflecting its Bavarian state administration. Camp scrip of this type was issued specifically to restrict purchasing power to approved canteen goods, preventing cash from leaving the camp or being used for bribery.
Alexander Wiede of Chemnitz was a minor commercial printer with no specialist security printing background, which is typical of German PoW camp money — procurement was local and practical, not centralized. Campbell 3368 is a scarce entry in the series.
