Kōya-san's Daitoku-In temple complex on Mount Kōya issued its own scrip currency well into the Meiji transition period, functioning as a quasi-autonomous monetary authority within its sacred precinct. The annotation 南都改 — roughly "inspected at Nanto," referring to Nara — indicates this note passed through an external verification process, an unusual administrative wrinkle that distinguishes it from standard Daitoku-In issues and suggests it was intended for circulation beyond the mountain's immediate environs.
Temple-issued currency of this type became legally void following the Meiji government's 1871 prohibition on private and ecclesiastical scrip, making 1866 notes among the last legitimate issues of this kind.
