Lichtenhorst was a German officer prisoner-of-war camp during World War I, and like many such facilities, it operated its own internal currency to prevent inmates from accumulating Reichsmarks that could fund escape attempts. These camp pfennig notes were produced in minimal quantities, used within a closed population of perhaps a few hundred officers, and had no value the moment the armistice rendered the camp itself obsolete.
Survival rates are low precisely because no one had reason to preserve them — they were functionally worthless the day the war ended.
