Opmerkingen

Military mess tokens in paper form are unusual enough, but Keflavik adds a specific wrinkle: the NATO base in Iceland operated a semi-autonomous economic ecosystem, and mess scrip was used to keep transactions internal and prevent U.S. dollars from circulating freely in the local Icelandic economy — a condition Iceland's government was particular about during the base's operational years.

Pink paper distinguishes this denomination within the series. These pieces saw hard daily use in canteen and bar settings and survivors in any decent state are genuinely uncommon.
