Martial Money. From the Veld to the Jungle
The History of 20th-Century Conflicts Through the Currency That Funded Them
The battlefield isn’t always on the front lines—sometimes, it’s in the pocket of a soldier. In Martial Money, the complex worlds of military history and numismatics collide. From “Invasion Money” printed for occupied territories to emergency scrip issued in the heat of a siege, every piece of paper carries the weight of a nation’s survival.
This book goes beyond standard catalogs to explore the tangible artifacts of war. Learn how empires attempted to stabilize crumbling economies, how resistance movements forged their own legitimacy, and how paper currency reflected a world in upheaval.
