Commentary
Pour des raisons de contrôle, l'argent de poche des élèves du pensionnat a été remplacé par des jetons de 1 Batz et 5 Batzen. Ils n'étaient mis en circulation que pendant une courte période et ne pouvaient être échangés qu'au sein de l'établissement et auprès de quelques commerçants sélectionnés.
For control reasons, the boarding school students' pocket money was replaced with 1 Batz and 5 Batzen tokens. These were only in circulation for a short time and could only be exchanged within the school and at a few selected merchants.
