| Opmerkingen |
Dunaszerdahely (today Dunajská Streda, Slovakia) hosted one of the Austro-Hungarian Empire's prisoner of war camps during the First World War, and this 20 Fillér note is a product of that system's internal scrip economy. Camp currency was deliberately non-transferable outside the wire — prisoners could earn it through permitted labor and spend it at the camp canteen, with the dual effect of discouraging hoarding of hard currency and giving the administration control over prisoner purchasing power.
Globus was a well-established Budapest commercial printer, not a security press, which is why camp scrip from this series shows no sophisticated anti-counterfeiting measures. The threat was theoretical at best — the notes were worthless beyond the camp gates.
