The Customs Gold Unit was introduced in 1930 as a notional accounting currency pegged to gold, used specifically for calculating import duties — not as general circulating money. By 1947, with the Nationalist government hemorrhaging credibility and the fabi already collapsing under hyperinflation, these high-denomination CGU notes were being issued at face values that would have seemed fantastical a decade earlier.
Security Banknote Company of Philadelphia handled a significant portion of Chinese Nationalist currency printing during the 1940s, alongside the better-known American Bank Note Company. The question mark on the printer date suggests incomplete records, not unusual given wartime and postwar disruption to shipping and communications between Philadelphia and Shanghai.
The CGU series was formally swept away when the gold yuan reform collapsed in 1949.
