The Customs Gold Unit was a notional accounting currency introduced by the Nationalist government in 1930 specifically to stabilize tariff revenues, which had been collected in silver taels and were therefore vulnerable to exchange rate volatility. The CGU was pegged to the U.S. dollar at a fixed rate, insulating customs receipts from the chronic instability of Chinese silver markets.
American Bank Note Company printed the series under contract — a longstanding arrangement that gave Chinese government paper much of its technical credibility abroad during this period. The 250-unit denomination is among the less commonly encountered values in the CGU series.
