Opmerkingen

Loon is a municipality on the island of Bohol, and this note is one of hundreds of hyperlocal emergency issues that proliferated across the Philippine provinces during the Japanese occupation. With the pre-war Commonwealth peso driven out of practical use and Japanese Military Pesos widely distrusted, municipal and provincial governments printed their own scrip to keep local markets functioning at all.

Bohol's guerrilla resistance was unusually organized, and some local currency issues from the island were backed — at least nominally — by provincial authority rather than being purely improvisational. Whether Loon's issue falls into that category or represents purely municipal initiative is not firmly documented.
