Wiesa, a small village near Annaberg in Saxony, housed one of the many German officer prisoner-of-war camps that issued their own internal currency during the First World War. The practice was widespread and officially sanctioned — camp scrip kept Allied officers from accumulating Reichsmark that could theoretically fund escape attempts or be smuggled out.
Johannes Pässler of Dresden printed for several regional camps during this period, which occasionally creates attribution confusion when notes lack explicit camp identifiers. The 2 Mark denomination sits in the middle of what was typically a short series covering small daily purchases within the canteen economy.
