Opmerkingen

Miramas, a rail junction town in Bouches-du-Rhône, hosted one of the many prisoner-of-war depots established across France during the First World War. The 15th Military Region administered a broad swath of southern France, and its POW camps — Miramas among them — issued their own fractional emergency scrip precisely because small change collapsed out of circulation almost immediately after mobilization in August 1914. These notes circulated exclusively within the camp economy, accepted at canteens and internal services but worthless outside the wire.

Camp-issued scrip from the 15th Region is irregularly documented; survival is largely accidental, dependent on former prisoners or guards having kept souvenirs.
