School money — sometimes called "educational scrip" or "play money" — was produced commercially in large quantities from the late 19th century onward, primarily for classroom arithmetic instruction. These pieces mirrored real banknote dimensions closely enough to make the exercises meaningful, though the specific producer of this example is unrecorded in the major references.
Condition is rarely a useful metric here. These were handled by children.
