10 Units Ludwig Dillingen; UNRRA centre

UNRRA's Displaced Persons centres in the American occupation zone of Germany operated a parallel scrip economy out of practical necessity — German marks were restricted, and some means of internal exchange was needed to manage canteen purchases and basic services within the camps. The Ludwig Dillingen centre, housing Lithuanian DPs, issued its own denominated scrip rather than relying on central UNRRA-printed notes, making camp-specific issues like this one genuinely local documents.

Lithuanian DP scrip from 1946 sits in an awkward collecting category — too recent for many numismatists, too ephemeral for most historians — which has kept survival rates uncertain and documentation sparse. S&B 134 remains one of the thinner catalogue entries in the series.
