Lionandi was a prisoner of war camp in Swaziland operated during the Second World War, and this 25-cent note belongs to a small scrip series issued for internal camp use — a practical necessity when military authorities needed to control purchasing power within the perimeter without circulating standard currency. Camp scrip of this kind was common across British-administered territories in southern Africa during the early war years, but the Lionandi issues are among the more obscure, with very few examples documented in major collections.
The Cambridge reference (5410) is the primary anchor for identification. Original documentation on print runs and issuing authority remains sparse.
