<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lettow, post: 696487, member: 6986&quot;]I am not sure what you mean by &quot;script doesnt have a face value&quot;.&nbsp; I would compare scrip (without the final &quot;t&quot;) to tokens, not fantasy coins.&nbsp; Depression Scrip was used in commerce and had a recognized value at the time it was used.&nbsp; I think it has more to do with the fact that the circulation was local, there is no uniformity in the notes (like Nationals and other US currency) and most pieces are fairly scarce so completing a collection (unless the collection is defined by location or some other limiting factor) is nearly impossible.</p><p><br /></p><p>They are fun to hunt for.&nbsp; You never know where you will find them.&nbsp; I found some scarce Wisconsin pieces at a rummage sale.&nbsp; And they are usually inexpensive.&nbsp; Most notes can be had in the $20.00-40.00 range.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
