Oflag II-C at Woldenberg — today Dobiegniew in western Poland — held Polish officer prisoners of war from the campaign of September 1939 through to liberation in January 1945. The camp's Barrack Commission issued its own internal currency to regulate trade and canteen purchases among the prisoners, a practice permitted under the Geneva Convention and common across German-administered officer camps. These notes circulated exclusively within the wire.
The 20 Fenigow denomination is the smallest in the Woldenberg series. Camp scrip of this type was produced entirely by prisoners — designed, lettered, and printed without access to professional equipment, which accounts for the variation in impression quality seen across surviving examples.
