The Bank of Chōsen — the Japanese colonial central bank established in Korea in 1909 — issued fractional sen notes during the First World War and its immediate aftermath because the global shortage of silver had made small coin production economically unviable. This 20 Sen belongs to that wartime and postwar fractional currency program, which was itself an extension of Japanese monetary policy across the colonial sphere rather than a response to any condition specific to Korea.
The series was short-lived by design. Once metal supplies stabilized and coin production resumed, these notes were withdrawn. Surviving examples in any condition are scarcer than their original print runs might suggest.
