Air Force mess chits occupy a genuinely odd corner of military scrip collecting. These were internal tokens of account — not legal tender, not official military payment certificates — issued by individual base messes to control food and beverage purchases within a specific dining facility. The issuing authority here was the mess itself, not a centralized command, which means denominations, designs, and security measures varied considerably from installation to installation and could change whenever the base finance officer decided.
The perfin is the notable feature: a mechanical hole-punch pattern borrowed from commercial banking practice, intended to prevent chits from one mess being passed at another. It worked imperfectly.
