| Opmerkingen |
By 1944 the Central Bank of China was printing currency in quantities that bore little relationship to any underlying reserve. Wartime inflation was already severe — the 100 Yuan note that could feed a family in 1937 had lost the overwhelming majority of its purchasing power by the time this issue reached circulation. The Printing Works was essentially running presses to fund a war effort, not to maintain a functional monetary system.
Hyperinflation accelerated sharply through 1945–1948, which means notes of this period were cycled through transactions rapidly and discarded. High-denomination survivors in any condition tend to show hard use.
