Description: Lot of (2) Military Payment Certificates (MPC) Series 481Year Issued: 1954Five Cents and Ten CentsCondition: Circulated (G/VG) What is a Military Payment Certificate? Between 1946 and 1973 the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) produced Military Payment Certificates (MPC) for the U.S. Department of Defense. MPCs were used as the official medium of exchange for all financial transactions on overseas military bases. MPCs could be used to make on-base purchases, and under certain very limited conditions could be converted to U.S. currency. MPCs could be exchanged for currency used in the local community. Local currency, however, could not be converted back into MPCs nor could the local populace use MPCs. When a new MPC series was introduced, only authorized users could convert their MPCs to the new series, and after conversion the old series became worthless. MPCs were printed in dollar units. MPCs produced from 1946 to1965 included the 5¢, 10¢, 25¢, 50¢, $1, $5, and $10 denominations. From 1966 on, MPC series included a $20 note as well.
