    ]The notes below were issued to Allied Personnel during WW11. These particular notes were amongst the papers of Captain David Barrie. How they came to be there is a bit of a mystery because the observant among you will note that The Egypian note bears the head of King Farouk and he never came on to the throne until just before 1939. These notes were issued to stop black marketeering. The local populace of each country had different notes and so these banknotes were of no value to them. The last country to have a separate currency for alien was Communist China,it was called the Yuan and was printed in English ,French and German.
