Internierungslagermarke „Zwei Schilling“ von 1943

Hay internment camp tokens were struck to facilitate day-to-day commerce within the internment camps that existed in Hay, New South Wales, during World War II. The coins circulated amongst mostly European, and later Japanese, interns for the duration of the war, after which a majority of coins were officially melted. The small number of coins that exist today are widely collected by both numismatists and war historians, and are considered scarce.
