Hell Bank Notes are ritual joss paper printed for burning at funerals and ancestral ceremonies, particularly in Chinese, Vietnamese, and broader East Asian Buddhist and Taoist traditions. The denomination on this example — 10,000 dollars — reflects a logic of abundance: offerings burned in the physical world are understood to transfer wealth to the deceased in the afterlife. The numbers are purely symbolic and escalate freely, with some notes running into the billions.
Not legal tender anywhere, never issued by any monetary authority, and outside the scope of conventional numismatics — but collected widely as ethnographic objects.
