Opmerkingen

Helmstedt was one of several German officer prisoner-of-war camps that issued its own internal scrip during the First World War — a practical response to the problem of allowing captive officers, who under the Hague Conventions of 1907 could not be compelled to work, to make canteen purchases without handling Reichsmark currency that might facilitate escape. Officer camps issued their own denominations independently, which is why Helmstedt scrip cannot be exchanged with, say, Quedlinburg or Dülmen issues of the same period.

Paper POW Lagergeld from this era survives in wildly uneven quantities depending on how aggressively individual camp administrations recalled and destroyed notes at the armistice.
