MPC Collections ROCK!!

Military Payment Certificate (MPC) Collections

There were 13 issues of MPCs. These 13 issues occurred from September 1946 until mid- 1973 and began with Series 461 and ended with Series 692. They were issued to our US Military personnel overseas. The government's primary purpose in issuing MPCs was to control Europe's growing black market and to keep American cash from getting into the hands of our enemies.

Highly Collectible and Under Valued

You may ask: "Why are these MPCs undervalued?" The reason is simple -- Most GI’s were unable to keep the notes in good condition! Furthermore, very few MPCs were saved; soldiers were given just a few days notice before an old series became worthless and a new series came into effect. 

Importantly, however, many of the G.I.'s who brought a few notes home as souvenirs became the first collectors.

If you decide to put a set together remember that it is very easy to compile a complete MPC fractional set --  which is the 5c 10c 25c and the 50c.

I have put a world class Gem set together and have taken the PCGS registry award for the many years.
A few years ago when I was at a major show, I could find some nice pieces for sale on the floor. However, as demand increases, these notes are becoming more scarce. Now is a GREAT time to put your MPC collection together -- these collections will skyrocket in value as demand for these scarce notes escalates!!
