The XVIII. Armee-Korps administered prisoner-of-war camps across the Frankfurt region during the First World War, and by 1917 small-denomination scrip like this had become a practical necessity. Germany's wartime metal shortages had gutted civilian coin circulation, and camp administrations were left to devise their own internal payment systems for prisoner canteen purchases — Germany was not alone in this, but the sheer number of distinct camp-issuing authorities produced an extraordinary fragmentation of types.
Paper at this denomination wore out fast in canteen use. Survivors in any condition are not common.
