The Bank of Eastern Chekiang (Dongzhe Yinhang) was one of several regional institutions that emerged from Kuomintang-affiliated provincial banking structures during the war years. By 1945, the KMT was scrambling to reassert financial authority across territories that had been under Japanese occupation, and provincial notes like this one were part of that effort — circulated ahead of formal national monetary reintegration and withdrawn once the Central Bank apparatus caught up.
The "H" suffix on Pick S3058 typically denotes a variant within the series, often a different date, overprint, or issuing branch designation. Worth verifying against the specific serial prefix block.
