| Opmerkingen |
Japan's military yen issues were produced specifically for use in occupied territories, functioning as a mechanism to extract local goods and labor without depleting metropolitan currency reserves. The 100 Yen denomination was the highest value in the military series, and its appearance in 1945 — as supply chains collapsed and Allied advances accelerated — meant large volumes were printed to cover increasingly desperate procurement needs across Southeast Asia and the Pacific.
No serial numbers, no issuing bank signature, no redemption obligation. Occupied populations were left holding worthless paper when Japanese forces withdrew.
