Comments

The Eastern Mongolian Bank was a short-lived institution established under Soviet and Chinese Communist influence in Inner Mongolia following the collapse of Japanese occupation. This 100 Yuan / 100 Tögrög note bears a dual denomination — Yuan on one face, Tögrög on the other — reflecting the bank's awkward political position serving a population straddling two monetary orbits simultaneously, one Chinese and one Mongolian.

The bank itself operated for only a few years before Inner Mongolia's monetary affairs were absorbed into the People's Bank system after 1949. Notes from this issuer are genuinely scarce, particularly in any condition above heavily circulated, as the region saw intense administrative disruption during and after the transition period.

Year 35 corresponds to the 35th year of the Republic of China calendar — 1946.
