| Comments |
The Bank of Huai Nau (淮南银行) was a Communist Party financial institution operating in the Huai-Nan base area, one of several guerrilla banking bodies established behind Japanese lines in central China. These notes circulated in contested territory where multiple currencies — Japanese military yen, puppet bank issues, and Nationalist money — competed simultaneously, often under threat of force.
The S-prefix Pick number reflects its classification as a local or regional issue rather than a central government note. Documentation on individual printings within this series remains fragmentary, and surviving examples are scarce given the wartime conditions under which they were both issued and destroyed.
