| Opmerkingen |
Japan's wartime fiscal situation by 1945 was catastrophic — military expenditure had obliterated any meaningful backing for the currency, and the Bank of Japan was issuing notes largely to paper over a collapsing economy. This high-denomination 1000 Yen was part of that emergency expansion of the money supply in the war's final year.
The Allied occupation authorities declared all wartime notes issued before August 1945 subject to exchange controls, and a 1946 new yen conversion effectively wiped out holders of large-denomination notes through a punishing cap on convertible amounts. The 1000 Yen notes bore the heaviest losses.
