The Waterloo Coin Society in Ontario issues these notes as official convention currency — redeemable at dealer tables during their annual show rather than in general commerce. The practice of numismatic organizations issuing their own scrip is a long-standing North American collector tradition, functioning as both a promotional tool and a collectible in its own right.
Andri Kurniawan's design credit is notable; professional designers attached to hobby-organization scrip are less common than the volunteer artwork that characterizes most club currency of this type.
