By 1945, the Central Bank of China was printing money faster than the economy could absorb it. This 100 Yuan note entered circulation during the final phase of the Second Sino-Japanese War, when wartime expenditure had already set China on a hyperinflationary trajectory that would accelerate catastrophically after Japan's surrender. The printing burden fell increasingly on domestic facilities — Shanghai among them — as overseas printing arrangements became logistically impossible.
The series of which P#278 is part was rendered nearly worthless within months of issue. By 1947, denominations in the hundreds had become inadequate for daily transactions, and by 1948 the entire fabi currency system was abandoned in favor of the gold yuan — itself a failure within a year.
