备注

Military Payment Certificates were introduced in 1946 specifically to replace the dollar in U.S. military occupation zones, cutting off the black market pipeline that had allowed Soviet-bloc personnel and civilians to exchange American currency for hard dollars through official channels. The Series 461 issue — of which this 50-cent note is part — was the first MPC series put into circulation, activated on September 16, 1946.

Forbes Lithograph, a Boston commercial printer, was an unusual choice for currency work, and the MPC program generally favored speed and secrecy over the engraved intaglio standards of conventional Federal Reserve production. Conversion days, when all MPCs were suddenly replaced and old certificates voided within hours, were a deliberate design feature of the system.
