| Opmerkingen |
Hesepe bei Bramsche was a German officer prisoner-of-war camp during the First World War, and its internal currency was a direct product of a practical problem: Allied officers were entitled under the Hague Convention to retain some purchasing power, but allowing access to Reichsmarks created obvious security and smuggling risks. Camp scrip was the administrative solution, circulating only within the wire.
The validation stamp was the only meaningful anti-counterfeiting measure — the notes themselves were printed simply, and the stamp distinguished authorized issues from any internal forgeries. Campbell records only a handful of Hesepe denominations, making individual pieces genuinely uncommon in the collector market.
