| Opmerkingen |
The Minbushō-satsu series was issued in the immediate aftermath of the Meiji Restoration, when the new government had abolished domain currencies but had not yet built a functioning national banking system. These notes were effectively bridge instruments — rushed into circulation to fill the vacuum left by the collapsing han paper money system, and issued by a ministry that itself ceased to exist in 1871 when its functions were absorbed into the Ōkurashō.
The 1 Shu denomination sits at the lowest practical unit of the series, and surviving examples with intact paper are uncommon — the thin domestic stock used for these early Meiji issues was poorly suited to heavy handling.
