The Bank of Central China was a puppet institution established under Japanese occupation, issuing currency across Hubei, Hunan, and Jiangxi provinces as part of a broader strategy to displace Nationalist and regional currencies. By 1945 the military situation had turned decisively against Japan, and notes issued that year entered circulation into an economy already collapsing under hyperinflationary pressure — purchasing power eroded so rapidly that high denominations became necessary for routine transactions.
P#S3375 is catalogued in the "S" (Specialized) sequence, reflecting its regional rather than central-government status. Many surviving examples show heavy use, consistent with the frantic velocity of money in the occupation's final months.
