10 Yuan Bank of Taiwan

The Bank of Taiwan functioned as Taiwan's de facto central bank from 1945 until the Central Bank of China formally resumed those duties in 1961 — yet continued issuing currency well after that transition, creating an unusual parallel arrangement that persisted into the late 1960s and beyond. This 1969 note falls squarely in that overlap period, when the Bank of Taiwan retained issuance authority for the New Taiwan Dollar despite no longer holding the central banking mandate.

The Central Engraving and Printing Plant had relocated from Shanghai to Taipei in 1949 along with the Nationalist government, and by this point in production was printing exclusively for the ROC's Taiwan-based institutions.
