Opmerkingen

The Leyte Emergency Currency Board was one of dozens of provincial and municipal emergency currency bodies that sprang up across the Philippine archipelago following the Japanese invasion of December 1941. With the Commonwealth government in exile and normal banking channels severed, local officials were authorized — or simply took it upon themselves — to print emergency notes to keep local economies functioning under occupation conditions.

Leyte notes are among the more elusive of the Philippine guerrilla and emergency issues. The island's relative isolation during the early occupation period meant small print runs on whatever paper was locally available, and survival rates reflect that.
