Kenyérmező was one of several large Austro-Hungarian prisoner-of-war camps that issued their own internal currency to prevent inmates from accumulating standard Kronen — and, by extension, from bribing guards or funding escapes. These Lagergeld issues were administrative tools as much as monetary ones. The 1916 date places this squarely in the period of maximum camp overcrowding, when the Eastern Front had delivered hundreds of thousands of Russian prisoners into Habsburg hands faster than the infrastructure could absorb them.
Campbell 1393 is among the higher denominations in the Kenyérmező series, which itself is one of the scarcer camp issues from the Austro-Hungarian system.
