Teller training notes issued by Chinese banking institutions are rarely catalogued with any seriousness, which makes them genuinely awkward to price and attribute. This 2006 example was produced for use in bank training programs, where new staff practice counting, sorting, and authenticating currency without handling legal tender. The precise issuing institution — whether a specific state bank, the People's Bank of China directly, or a third-party training supplier — is not always documented on the notes themselves, and attribution varies across references.
Not legal tender at any point. Collectibility is driven almost entirely by the training note niche, which is narrow but active in Chinese numismatic circles.
