Comments
These coupons were issued to military personnel and civil servants according to their salary and allowance levels. They were used to buy essential supplies—like cigarettes, candy, and toiletries—at trail-side canteens and department stores where official state currency was not permitted for security reasons. Soldiers returning to the North could exchange any remaining coupons for official currency at specific exchange points.
