The Peveril Camp was another of the British internment camps located on the Isle of Man.  The camp was located in the town of Peel and operated from July 1940-May 1945.  As with the other IOM camps it held mostly German Jewish refugees.  The scrip was produced on thin cardboard in denominations of 1/2 penny, 1 penny, 6 pence, 1 shilling, 1/2 crown, 5 shillings, and 10 shillings.  Some of the denominations come in more than one color. They are all scarce especially the 1 Pound.  The 5 Shilling exists primarily in museums.
