The Central Bank of China's 1931 fractional currency program was driven by a chronic shortage of small-denomination coins in circulation — a persistent problem in Republican China where copper and silver coinage was being hoarded, melted, or simply not minted in sufficient quantities to meet demand. Zhonghua Book Company in Beijing was one of a handful of domestic printers the bank turned to as it worked to reduce dependence on foreign security printers like American Bank Note and Waterlow.
Pick 202 is among the less commonly encountered pieces from this fractional series, partly because low-value notes of this period absorbed heavy daily use and rarely survived intact.
