Could we please create a new section in Exonumia for military vouchers such as these:
https://en.numista.com/catalogue/note243842.html
https://en.numista.com/catalogue/note205481.html
We already have "Military tokens" for metal issues (although these need to be moved out of "Confinement tokens"), so we just need a section called "Military vouchers" under "Paper vouchers".

Those are official issues for both the British Armed Forces & the U.S. Armed Forces - NOT exonumia!

They are listed in the Pick Specialised catalogue.

The OED defines Exonumia as:

Objects of historical interest which lie outside the field of numismatics but which relate to or resemble coins or currency, such as medals, tokens, badges, coupons, etc.

It's not about who issued them or what images they have on them but what they were used for.

Now that it seems to have become easier to move banknotes to exonumia, can we please act on this?
