The Customs Gold Unit was introduced in 1930 as a notional accounting currency for tariff payments, pegged to gold and insulated from the chronic depreciation eating at the regular fabi. By 1947, that insulation had long since failed. The CGU notes issued that year were themselves inflationary instruments, printed in denominations that would have been unthinkable a decade earlier — 2,000 units being a case in point.
Chung Hwa Book Co. was one of several Shanghai printers pressed into emergency currency production as the Nationalist government's finances collapsed ahead of the Communist advance. The series was effectively obsolete within a year of issue.
