British Armed Forces Special Vouchers — universally called BAFSVs — replaced cash on military bases to prevent sterling from leaking into local black markets in occupied and treaty territories. The 2nd series ran across a remarkably long window, covering postings from the tail end of the occupation zones in Germany through the early years of BAOR consolidation and beyond. De La Rue printed the full series, as they had the first, under strict Ministry of Defence contract terms that kept production figures classified for years.
The vouchers were not legal tender anywhere and could only be exchanged within the NAAFI system, which was precisely the point.
