The Japanese Occupation (1942 - 1945) Last Issue

As inflation crept in, the Japanese printed banknotes in larger denominations. This bill is the last of the third series (1944-5) It was printed just before their surrender in 1945.

Due to dwindling resources, this banknote is smaller than the others and is printed on cheap paper, the reason why the blue ink at the front bleeds through the back.
