Wiesa bei Annaberg was a small officer prisoner-of-war camp in Saxony, and its scrip was printed locally by Johannes Pässler of Dresden — a commercial printer with no particular connection to official currency work, which shows in the utilitarian execution. Officer camps under the Hague Conventions were required to pay captured officers a stipend equivalent to that of their own rank in the detaining army, and camp scrip was the mechanism used to fulfill that obligation while keeping foreign currency out of circulation within the wire.
Pässler produced notes for several Saxon camp facilities during 1916. The Wiesa issue is among the scarcer ones, reflecting the camp's limited officer population.
