I suppose Ration Books must be considered in this section because without them money was of very little value except on the Blackmarket.Remember they had different sections for Foodstuffs and Clothing.
Foodstuffs seemed to be called points and where cancelled with a thick indelable pencil and Clothing where called coupons and where cut from the book.You can still see the odd one forsale at Antique Fairs ect
