They're small pieces of paper you can get at your post office - don't worry,
you might have to ask around because even THEY might not know about them :-)
At least last time I went to get some, the clerk had to ask her superior, 
what they were, and so on. 

Anyway, they're supposed to be the equivalent of one first-class stamp for
a light envelope (20g?) going anywhere in the world. I think they're still
frequently used by radio amateurs. There is a slight difference in price vs.
the value of stamp you get in return, but I guess that goes to running the
bureaucracy that handles the IRC traffic.

That's also OK if you can get the currency, USA is no problem but some more
exotic country could be.
