About this banknote

The "3 Punkte" banknote was issued under the authority of the Reichskommissariat Ostland during the German occupation of Estonia. Introduced in 1945, this specific type of camp and occupation money was used as a form of rationing currency to control the distribution of flax and woolen goods.

The banknote features a green and cream color scheme with central motifs of flax processing and sheep shearing. Inscriptions are in German and Estonian, highlighting its use in the region. This note was printed by the Lettlands Wertpapierdruckerei in Riga and had a validity until April 30, 1945.
