The Customs Gold Unit was a short-lived accounting denomination introduced by the Nationalist government in 1948 as the gold yuan reform was already visibly collapsing. It was nominally pegged to gold and intended to stabilize customs revenue collection, but hyperinflation had so thoroughly destroyed confidence in paper instruments that the unit's purchasing power eroded almost immediately after notes entered circulation.
The 250,000 CGU denomination reflects just how far the situation had deteriorated by late 1948. Printing was handled in-house at the Central Bank's Shanghai works — a city that would fall to Communist forces within months of this note's issue.
