NAZI GERMAN 1943-44 WINTER RELIEF RATION COUPON

The Winterhilfswerk, or Winter Relief Fund was a major program run by the Nazi party in Germany to help those where were in need survive the harsh German winters.  Contributions to the fund were supposedly voluntary, however failure to contribute was not tolerated and could cause the loss of one's job or worse.  Direct donations to the needy were strongly discouraged.  Those in need were given coupons which could be spent on food, clothing, fuel, rent, gas or electricity during the winter.  The recipient would enter their name and address on the back of the coupon.  The upper right corner would be cut off when the merchant who received the coupon cashed it at a bank. This cancelled brown 1 Reichmark Winterhilfswerk coupon was issued for the winter of 1943-1944.  A summary of the regulations is on the front and a list of eligible items on the back.  It is a rarely seen World War II item from Nazi Germany.

NAZI GERMAN BONDS

These bonds were issued by Nazi Germany between 1935 and 1942.  The bonds had a lottery aspect, with a portion of the bonds being drawn each year for repayment.   The 1935 and 1936 bonds were issued by the Reich Debt Administration and carry a nominal interest rate of 4 1/2%.  The 1935 issue bear, the Reich’s eagle from the Weimar Republic, the 1936 have the Nazi Eagle & Swastika emblem.  The 1942 bonds were issued by the state of Thuringia with a nominal interest rate of 3 1/2%.  They have the embossed Nazi eagle & swastika emblem.   The bonds measure approximately 8.5" x 11.75" (21cm x 29.5cm) and have been canceled by a single hole punch.  The bonds have a remarkable history.  Having been stored in the impenetrable safe of the Reichsbank in Berlin, they survived the Second World War unscathed by bombings. Even during the years of the German Democratic Republic they went largely untouched.  In 2015 the German Ministry of Finance had the bonds sold at auction, with the proceeds going to the Nazi Crimes Compensation Fund.  They are remarkable and historic items of Nazi German economic history.

WWII FASCIST ROMANIA BANKNOTE

Romania came under the control of fascist dictator Ion Antonescu in September 1940.  The country officially joined the Axis powers in November 1940.  It was a major participant in the invasion of the Soviet Union, contributing both troops and equipment, and was a major supplier of oil for the German war machine.  In 1943 the Allies began heavy bombing of Romania. The Soviet Union invaded in 1944.   Shortly thereafter young King Michael, who had previously been little more than a figurehead, led a coup that overthrew Antonescu. Romania then joined the Allies. Soviet troops quickly occupied Romania, even though Romania was now on the same side as the Soviet Union.  This Romanian 500 Lei note is dated between November 1940 and January 1943, the period when Romania was under the control of the fascists and supporting Nazi Germany.  The brown note depicts two female farmers carrying hoes on the front.  The back features the Peles Castle. The Neo-Renaissance castle was built as a royal residence for Carol I, the first king of modern Romania, between 1873 and 1914.  Today it is a popular tourist attraction.

He made his way to London, then after the war lived in the United States, eventually working in a Los Angeles Savings and Loan before he died in Denver in 1970.

WORLD WAR II COINS OF VICHY FRANCE  

Vichy France also known as “Etat Francais” (French State) was the collaborationist government set up by the Germans after France was defeated in World War II.  Its administrative capital was in the town of Vichy.  Though it nominally ruled France, in reality it only controlled the south-eastern portion of the country, while Germany controlled the rest.  This three-coin set includes the aluminum 50 Centimes, 1 and 2 Francs of Vichy France.  One side of the coin features a double-headed axe flanked by grain.  The other side has the denomination flanked by oak leaves and the legend “TRAVAIL, FAMILLE, PATRIE” (“work, family, fatherland”).  The legend replaced the traditional motto of the French Republic “liberty, equality, fraternity”.   The coins date from 1942 to 1944.

WORLD WAR II ERA COINS OF MONACO

These aluminum-bronze 1 and 2 Franc coin of Monaco were struck at the Paris Mint in 1945 shortly after the Paris was liberated from the Nazis. Unlike most modern coins, they do not have a date.  Both coins have similar designs with Prince Louis II on the obverse and the Monaco arms on the reverse. Unlike most coin portraits, Louis is wearing glasses.  Louis was raised in Germany and served with distinction in the French Foreign Legion and the French Army.  At the start of World War II he attempted to use his connections with France and Germany to keep Monaco out of the war, however in November 1942 the Italian Army invaded Monaco and set up a Fascist government.  Following Mussolini’s collapse, the Germans occupied Monaco.  Allied troops liberated the country in September 1944, though by then the country was in shambles.

WORLD WAR II COIN OF SPAIN   

Though Francisco Franco and the Spanish Nationalists received heavy assistance from Hitler during the Spanish Civil War and the two were ideologically similar, Spain never officially joined the Axis powers in World War II.  Spain provided volunteers to fight against Russia, but insisted they not be used on the western front. Negotiations between Hitler and Franco concerning Spain formally entering the war did not go well, with Hitler reportedly saying "I prefer to have three or four of my own teeth pulled out than to speak to that man again!".   This 1944 21mm aluminum-bronze Spanish 1 Peseta depicts coat of arms of Spain on the obverse.  The reverse features the historical symbols of Spain around the denomination:  a pomegranate for Granada, four pallets for Aragon, a castle of Castile, a lion for León, chains for Navarre and a bundle of arrows for the Catholic Monarchs (Ferdinand and Isabella) who united the country.

1938 CHINESE WAR BONDS DEPICTS AIR AND SEA BATTLES

These 1938 Chinese War bonds include two wonderful vignettes.  One showing an aerial dogfight, the other depicting costal gun emplacements blasting ships offshore.  The bonds were issued by Kwangtung Province of China in March 1938 to raise funds in a desperate attempt to stop the Japanese invasion of China.  By the time the bonds were issued, Japan had already begun an naval and aerial blockade of Canton (now Guangzhou), the capital of Kwangtung Province (now Guangzhou).  Beijing, Shanghai and the national capital of Nanjing had already fallen to the Japanese.  The bonds were issued in low denominations in order to allow most Chinese to purchase them.  The defense of Canton failed and the city fell to the Japanese in December 1938. The bonds are labeled in Chinese "27th year Kwangtung Province National Defense Public Bond" and paid a 4% interest.  Only the first three coupons on each bond have been clipped.  The bonds measure approximately 10.5"x12.5" (26x31.5cm)      The 5 Dollar bonds are blue, the 10 Dollar bonds are brown.  It is an important item issued during the Japanese invasion of China.

WORLD WAR II JAPANESE MILITARY CURRENCY USED IN CHINA  

Japan  issued Military Currency starting in 1938 for use in the areas of China that they occupied. Because civilians were forced to accept the Military Yen, which was not backed and could not be exchanged into Japanese Yen, it cost the Japanese government virtually nothing to purchase whatever they wanted. The initial issues of Military currency were created by taking partially completed Japanese homeland notes and overprinting them on the front and back with four large red characters that read "Military Note".

UNUSUAL FIBER COINS FROM WWII JAPANESE OCCUPATION OF CHINA  

Manchukuo was a Japanese puppet state carved out of Northeastern China prior to World War II.  Due to a severe metal shortage towards the end of the war, it issued these unusual 1 Fen and 5 Fen coins struck in a thick, red material rather than metal. The coins are dated in the year of the reign of Emperor Kang Te of Manchukuo.   Kang Te was formerly known as Pu Yi, who was the last Emperor of China until he was deposed in 1911. The Japanese used him as the figurehead leader for Manchukuo.  The 1 Fen struck only a single year; 1945.  The 5 Fen was struck in 1944 and 1945. Because the material used was relatively soft, the coins show considerable wear. These historic World War II coins are some of the few circulating non-metallic coins of the 20th century.

WORLD WAR II BANKNOTE OF THE BANK OF CHINA

In 1937 Japan invaded China,  forcing the Chinese government and The Bank of China to retreat to the remote city of Chungking (now Chongqing). From there the Bank of China issued this  red 10 Yuan note.  Sun Yat Sen is on the front and the Temple of Heaven is on the back of all the notes.  The notes were printed by the American Bank Note Company in New York. The notes were among the last released by the Bank of China for the Republic of China, which ceased to issue notes for China in 1942.

JAPANESE INVASION OF THE UNITED STATES?

When these notes issued by Japan started showing up during World War II, many people took it as proof that Japan was about to conquer the United States and had already printed new currency for the United States. After all, the notes were clearly denominated in Dollar or Cents and had the words "THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT" in large letters.  The story was repeated so many times that many believed it must be true.  Though the Japanese government did print the notes, however they were for use in Malay, which Japan conquered by early 1942, and not the United States.   Like the United States, Malaya used dollars and cents.  The Uncirculated 10 Dollar notes pictures features bananas, breadfruit and coconuts on the front and palm trees and a ship steaming in the horizon on the back.   These are historic collector’s items recalling Japan’s unsuccessful attempt to extend her empire across Asia in World War II

WORLD WAR II PHILIPPINE GUERRILLA NOTES

To finance their activities fighting the Japanese during World War II various guerrilla bands in the Philippines issued their own currency. The guerillas would set up currency boards which would issue notes. Anyone caught using the Japanese invasion money was severely punished. Generally, each province would have its own currency board.  The names of three members of the currency board would appear on each note, which was a very brave and brazen act of defiance against the Japanese invaders. The notes tend to be crude, as they were printed under rather unfavorable conditions with limited resources.  We are pleased to offer a set of 24 different World War II Philippine Guerilla notes.  The notes grade Very Good to Very Fine.  These notes are a historic vestige of the brave Filipinos who fought against the Japanese in World War II.

LAST COIN OF THE NETHERLANDS EAST INDIES WAS STRUCK IN PHILADELPHIA

This 17mm bronze Half Cent were struck at the United States Mint in Philadelphia in 1945 in preparation for the liberation of the Netherlands East Indies (now Indonesia) from the Japanese. The coin is dated 1945 and the P mintmark is below the date. Indonesia gained independence from the Netherlands shortly after World War II, making them some of the last coins ever issued for what had been a Dutch territory for over 300 years. The coin features the Dutch arms on one side. The other side has legends in Javanese and Malay.  The coin is Uncirculated, though may show some minor spotting as is common on older bronze coins.

WWII CANADA TOMBAC 1942 BEAVER AND 1943 VICTORY 5 CENTS

During 1942, because nickel was needed for the war effort, Canada replaced the nickel 5 cent coin with one made of a brass alloy called Tombac. The new coins were 12-sided, making them even more distinctive.  The new coins kept the beaver reverse and King George VI that was on the previous coins. The coins were struck only a single year. On January 1, 1943 Canada released a new design for their 5-cent coin to promote the war effort of World War II. The reverse featured a large "V" behind a burning torch.  The V both stood for Victory and the denomination in Roman numerals).  Even though the coin is not made of nickel, it is often referred to as Canada's V Nickel.  Around the edge is the inscription in Morse code which reads "WE WIN WHEN WE WORK WILLINGLY".   Like the 1942 issue the coin was made of Tombac and depicted  King George VI on the obverse.  It too was struck only a single year.  In 1944 the Tombac allow was replaced with chrome-plated steel.

WORLD WAR II CANADIAN MEAT RATION TOKEN

Meat was rationed in Canada during World War II.  Families received a ration booklet which allowed them to purchase a limited quantity of rationed goods, including tea, coffee, sugar, butter, booze and meat each week.  Each weekly meat ration coupon was good for 2 pounds of meat.  The problem was that many did not have refrigeration at home, so they would either forfeit the whole coupon for a lesser amount of meat, or buy their full amount and risk it going bad before it could be used.  In 1945 the Canadian government finally wised up and issued meat ration tokens that were good for a lesser quantity of meat. Each token was worth 1/8 of a meat ration coupon (1/4 pound of meat), so if someone bought less than their full ration of meat the tokens could be given out to be used later.  If one bought half their weekly ration of meat, they would receive four tokens for later use.  The 22mm blue token is struck on a heavy blue cardboard with a center hole. Both sides have the same design with the words "CANADA - RATION MEAT - VIANDE" and two maple leaves.

World War II was a time of prosperity for Mexico.  Its minerals were much in demand for the war effort.  Many Mexicans went to the north to work in agriculture to cover for the shortage farm labor in the United States.  These Uncirculated 5 Centavos bronze 5 Centavos are dated 1944 and 1945, during the height of Mexico’s prosperity.  The 25.5mm bronze coins depict Josefa Ortiz De Dominguez, one of the hero’s of Mexico’s War of Independence.  Behind her head is the Mexico City mintmark.  The other side features Mexico’s national emblem of an eagle on a cactus eating a snake.  It is an attractive coin that is quite reasonably priced considering it is over 70 years old and still in it’s original mint condition.

WORLD WAR II COINS OF BOLIVIA STRUCK AT THE PHILADELPHIA MINT

This three-coin set includes the zinc 10 and 20 Centavos and bronze 50 Centavos dated 1942.  The coins were struck at the United States mint in Philadelphia.   The three coins have similar designs.  The obverses depict the Bolivian arms which feature the Potosi mountain silver mine and an alpaca.  The reverses have a caduceus, the denomination and date. During World War II Bolivia's mines supplied much needed tin to the Allies.  Bolivia did not declare war on Germany until 1943, by which time it was becoming clear that the Axis powers were losing the war.  Bolivia did not send troops, ships or airplanes overseas to fight the war.

PORTUGUESE TIMOR HONORS WORLD WAR II HERO

Portuguese Timor, now the independent nation of East Timor, honored their World War II hero Dom Aleixo Corte-Real on this 1967 20 Escudos note.  A vignette and watermark of him wearing an impressive feather crown appears on the front of the note. He is the only native to be honored on a banknote of Portuguese Timor and one of the only World War II heroes to be honored on a banknote anywhere. Aleixo Corte-Real, also known as Dom Aleixo Timorese was born in 1886.  In 1912 he became the Liurai (chief) of the region of Ainaro.  He was a strong supporter of the Portuguese rule of Timor.  The Japanese invaded Portuguese Timor in 1942, even though Portugal was a neutral country during the war.  He led a major revolt against the Japanese until he was captured in 1943.  He refused to denounce the Portuguese flag, for which he and his family were killed by the Japanese.   The back of the note includes the Portuguese Imperial Arms and the seal of the Banco National Ultramarino which features a sailing ship.  The note measures 135 x 75mm and has a solid security thread.  Because Portuguese Timor was a small, isolated colony its notes are difficult to find.  The note is Uncirculated, but has minor brown stains from storage in the tropics.
