| Opmerkingen |
The Customs Gold Unit was introduced in 1930 as an accounting currency for tariff payments, designed to insulate customs revenue from the chronic depreciation of the circulating fabi. By 1947, that insulation had long collapsed. The CGU notes issued that year were drawn into the same hyperinflationary spiral consuming the entire Nationalist monetary system, and denominations climbed rapidly as the civil war with the Communists accelerated economic disintegration.
Printed domestically by the Central Bank's own works rather than contracted abroad — a notable shift from earlier reliance on American Bank Note Company and other foreign printers — the series reflects both wartime self-sufficiency and the speed at which new denominations had to be produced.
