Lichtenhorst was a German prisoner-of-war camp in Lower Saxony operating during the First World War. Like many such installations, it issued its own internal scrip to prevent real currency from circulating among prisoners — a control measure as much as a logistical one. The 75 Pfennig denomination is slightly unusual within camp money series of this period, which more typically clustered around round values; its presence here may reflect a specific canteen pricing structure rather than a standard monetary ladder.
The DeNG reference places this within the broader documented series of German camp issues, though surviving examples vary considerably in condition given the improvised printing methods typical of wartime internal scrip.
