| Opmerkingen |
The Matsusaka Mitsui-gumi was not a bank in any modern institutional sense — it was the merchant house operation of the Mitsui family, whose money-changing and exchange activities in Matsusaka predated their later transformation into the Mitsui zaibatsu. These privately issued silver denomination bills (ginpu) circulated as working credit instruments within a local commercial network, accepted on the strength of Mitsui's name rather than any state guarantee.
The long validity window reflects the reality of late Edo and early Meiji transition: notes issued under the old merchant-house system were tolerated until the Meiji government's 1871 currency reforms forced their retirement.
