Opmerkingen

CARE packages became one of the most recognized humanitarian instruments of the postwar years, and these coupons were the financial mechanism behind them. An American donor would purchase a coupon, mail it to a recipient in Europe, and that person could redeem it locally through CARE's distribution network for a pre-packed parcel of food or goods — bypassing both currency exchange complications and the chronic import restrictions still throttling European economies in the early 1950s.

Not a banknote in any legal sense, but collected seriously as scrip. The 1951 dating places this squarely in the Korean War period, when CARE was simultaneously shifting operations toward Asia.
