| Opmerkingen |
The Netherlands East Indies government-in-exile issued this note from New York after the Japanese occupation of the archipelago in early 1942 effectively severed all local currency production. The American Bank Note Company handled several of the exile series, and the engraving quality is noticeably sharper than the pre-war Javaasche Bank issues — a consequence of ABNCo's production standards rather than any deliberate upgrade in policy.
These notes were prepared for reintroduction once Allied forces retook the territory. In practice, the post-war monetary situation proved chaotic enough that the returning Dutch administration had to contend with both Japanese occupation currency and a patchwork of informal substitutes already in circulation.
