    These are some of many MPC's that my wife's Grandfather earned in WW2. We are just now going through them. We have more, issued in several different counties that I can post later this evening. I would appreciate any knowledge from the experts, as this is a totally new collection to us. 20170104_192443-1.jpg 20170104_192501-1.jpg

    So after a little quick research, am I right in that these are common, even in good condition?

    Lets start with these first:

    These Particular notes are from Morocco which is a constitutional monarchy in North west Africa, bordering on the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea . from 1912 to 1956, Morocco was made up of three zones, including French Morocco, Under the control of Germany, Morocco along with the remainder of northwest Africa was invaded by the Allies on Nov8, 1942

    Capital--Rabat

    Monetary unit--Franc

    As far as value here again not much only about $20 in mint condition on the 10 Franc allot less and the smaller denominations.
