Denomination numerals "1/-" appear in ornamental cartouches at upper left and upper right, with the text "Good For" flanking the arms below. A bold oval panel in the centre carries the inscription "ONE SHILLING STERLING", beneath which a handwritten legend in cursive script states payability on demand to prisoners of war only at the canteen, followed by the manager's signature "C.W. Barnes" and the title "Manager".

备注

Green Point Track Camp was one of several prisoner-of-war camps established by British forces in the Cape Colony during the Anglo-Boer War. The camp at Green Point, Cape Town, used the existing athletics track as its perimeter — a practical requisition of civilian infrastructure that became a holding facility almost overnight after the war's outbreak in late 1899. These camp-issued notes were a confined economy: scrip redeemable only within the wire, allowing authorities to control what prisoners could purchase and from whom.

C.W. Barnes signed as camp commandant. The series is scarce; most scrip of this type was either redeemed and destroyed or simply discarded when prisoners were transferred or released.
