The "Printed: 30.04.1945" field here is almost certainly a data entry artifact — that date predates the State Bank of Vietnam's existence by several years. The bank was formally established in 1951. This note belongs to the 1985 series issued under the Socialist Republic, a period of acute monetary instability before the Đổi Mới reforms fundamentally restructured Vietnam's economic framework the following year.
The 1 Đồng denomination by 1985 had effectively negligible purchasing power, a consequence of hyperinflationary pressure that would soon prompt the 1985 currency reform — itself a failure — and eventually the 1989 liberalization.
