    A new addition to my hoard. A 5 Francs Allied Occupation propaganda note produced by the Germans.

    Translation from www.psyworrior.com

    "The Liberation..."
    "The liberation means for the Anglo-Americans: to massacre the French, to destroy their cities by bombing, to ravage their countryside, to mobilize their children to make cannon-fodder of them, to swindle the French with invasion notes without a single guarantee of value. The swindle is proved by these invasion notes which are not guaranteed by anyone, not by the State, not by the bank, not by a signature, not by a responsible person of any sort. It is just a piece of paper! The whole world can use it in any way. To all these crimes the Anglo-Americans now add this swindle to completely ruin France."

    Nice pick up. Assuming it is genuine. Copies of these and other propoaganda notes are known to exist.
