| Opmerkingen |
Stuttgart's prisoner of war camp scrip from 1915 sits in a category of German emergency currency that is frequently misunderstood. These Lagergeld notes were not charity tokens — their purpose was to control what prisoners could acquire and to prevent usable German currency from circulating among a captive enemy population. The 1 Pfennig denomination is the lowest in the Stuttgart series, which means it was handled constantly and survived poorly.
C. Naumann's Druckerei in Frankfurt produced several PoW camp series during the war years, which accounts for the family resemblance across geographically separate issues.
