Japanese prisoner-of-war camps in the Delhi area issued scrip denominated in Indian annas — the occupying power billing its captive currency to a monetary system it was simultaneously trying to destroy at the macro level. Whether this note was used for canteen purchases, internal camp accounting, or labor credits depends on the specific camp's administration, and documentation is thin.
Campbell 5229 is one of the more obscure PoW scrip references in South Asian numismatics. Surviving examples are rarely attributed to a specific camp facility with confidence.
