| Opmerkingen |
Italian Prisoner of War camp scrip occupies a poorly documented corner of wartime numismatics, and Campo n. 15 is no exception. These internal currencies were issued to control purchasing within camp canteens, preventing prisoners from accumulating Italian legal tender that could facilitate escape attempts or black-market dealings with guards. The issuing authority varied camp by camp — some notes were centrally printed, others produced with minimal equipment on site.
Precise attribution for individual camp issues remains difficult. Records from many Italian PoW camps were destroyed or lost in the chaotic final months of the war.
