The Commonwealth-era Treasury Certificate series, of which this is a part, was authorized under the Philippine Commonwealth government ahead of what everyone in Manila understood was coming. The Japanese invasion in December 1941 cut the series short; large quantities of unissued notes were destroyed or hidden to prevent capture, and the Bureau of the Treasury reportedly burned stocks in the final chaotic days before the fall of Corregidor.
Notes that did circulate were frequently hoarded once the Japanese occupation peso was imposed. Survivors from this series tend to show either very heavy use or almost none at all — middling wear is the exception.
