What happens when you invade a country... and bring your own money?
In this episode of Currency Under Fire, we explore the little-known story of Allied Military Currency (AMC)—banknotes printed by the U.S. and its allies to stabilize economies in the wake of WWII invasions and occupations.
From the beaches of Sicily to the ruins of Berlin—and across postwar Japan and Korea—these temporary notes were more than just paper. They were strategic tools in winning peace after combat.
🌍 Countries Covered:
Italy (AMC Lire)
France (AMC Francs)
Germany (Marks)
Austria (Schillings)
Japan & Korea (AMC Yen + the birth of Military Payment Certificates)
🏛️ Printed in secret by Forbes Lithographic (Boston) and Stecher-Traung Lithographic (San Francisco), these bills were secured like weapons—and many now live on in collectors' hands.
🎖️ This is Currency Under Fire.
Keep your notes crisp. Keep your history weird.
