| Anmerkungen |
The Japanese military administration in the Philippines began issuing occupation currency almost immediately after Manila fell in January 1942, with this 1 Peso note among the earliest releases. The notes were backed by nothing and the population knew it — Filipinos quickly dubbed the entire series "Mickey Mouse money," a term that spread fast and stuck. Merchants would accept it under duress but priced goods to account for its worthlessness, and black market exchange rates against pre-war Commonwealth pesos were punishing from the start.
Hyperinflation gutted purchasing power long before liberation. By 1944, a single egg cost several pesos in occupation currency.
