Dutch Tobacco Ration Coupons, WWII
Netherlands · 1944 · 10 gram / 20 gram (tobacco ration)
Two utilitarian ration coupons from the Netherlands, one for 10 grams and another for 20 grams of tobacco, featuring Dutch text and serial numbers.
Issued by the Municipality of Amsterdam, these coupons were valid until January 1, 1945, reflecting the severe rationing of essential goods like tobacco during the German occupation of the Netherlands in World War II.
