备注

Military Payment Certificates were issued to U.S. personnel stationed abroad as a control mechanism against black-market currency speculation — local populations were barred from holding them legally, and periodic "conversion days" allowed command to invalidate an entire series overnight. Series 661, which covers this note, was replaced on August 11, 1969, in a swift, unannounced swap conducted simultaneously across Vietnam, giving holders only hours to exchange before the old certificates became worthless paper.

Soldiers caught off-base or otherwise unable to reach a conversion point in time simply lost their money. That hard cutoff is why surviving Series 661 notes exist at all.
