Opmerkingen

The Iloilo Currency Committee was one of several provincial emergency currency bodies that scrambled into existence after Japanese forces cut off the Philippine Commonwealth government's ability to supply regular notes to the Visayas. This 5 Centavos piece belongs to the first wave of that effort, authorized and printed locally in late 1941 before the occupation of Iloilo City in April 1942.

Local printing under wartime pressure meant inconsistent registration and variable ink density across the series — not errors, simply the reality of improvised production. The Committee's issues were officially demonetized after liberation, leaving survivors largely as collector material rather than redeemed currency.
