The Negros Emergency Currency Board was one of several provincial bodies authorized to issue guerrilla currency during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines. These notes were a deliberate act of economic resistance — Japanese military scrip was being forced into circulation, and local governments in unoccupied or partially contested areas printed their own paper to keep civilian commerce functional and deny the occupation administration fiscal control.
Negros Occidental remained a significant center of guerrilla activity through 1944, and the currency issued there had genuine backing from local agricultural and commercial assets rather than being purely fiat. Many surviving examples show heavy use — these notes actually circulated, unlike some emergency issues that were hoarded or captured before reaching the public.
