| Beschrijving voorzijde | Dark green intaglio on pink underprint. The Dutch-language authority inscription runs across the upper portion of the note, with the denomination rendered in both Dutch text and Chinese characters distributed across the face; a plate letter prefix appears at left. The design is spare and typographic, relying on contrasting script styles rather than pictorial vignettes. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Printed in dark green on a plain pale background, the reverse is composed entirely of geometric guilloche work. A large central cartouche encloses an intricate rosette of fine lace-like lathe-work with the numeral "1" at its centre, flanked by floral ornamental fillers; each of the four corners carries the numeral "1" set within a scroll-work roundel, and a dense guilloche border frames the entire composition. |

| Opmerkingen |
Issued for occupied Malaya and Borneo following the rapid Japanese advance through Southeast Asia in early 1942, this note was part of the "banana money" series — so called by locals who resented the near-worthless scrip the occupying administration forced into circulation as a substitute for Straits dollar coinage. The Japanese military government printed these in Japan and shipped them in bulk, with no serial numbers on the lower denominations, a deliberate cost-cutting measure that made counterfeiting trivially easy.
By 1945, hyperinflation had rendered the entire series economically useless. Surrender made it officially worthless overnight.
