Mauthausen-on-the-Danube hosted one of the Austro-Hungarian Empire's larger prisoner of war camps during the First World War, holding primarily Russian and Italian captives at various points. Camp scrip of this type was a deliberate administrative tool — it prevented prisoners from accumulating Kronen currency usable outside the wire, while still allowing internal canteen transactions to function.
The dual signatures — Bartunck as administrative officer and Nottes as camp commandant — were both an accountability measure and an anti-counterfeiting precaution. Forgery of camp scrip by prisoners was not unknown across the broader POW camp network.
