Opmerkingen

French prisoner-of-war camp scrip, issued internally by the 62nd company of prisoners — almost certainly held in Germany — to allow small transactions within the camp economy without access to Reichsmarks. These internal currencies were a widespread workaround under the 1907 Hague Convention, which permitted camp administrators to pay prisoners for labor in camp-issued tokens or notes redeemable only within the compound.

The red paper stock is practical, not decorative — color differentiation prevented inter-company counterfeiting and simplified denomination control by guards and camp accountants. Surviving examples from individual company-level issues are considerably rarer than centrally administered camp currencies.
