The Mindanao Emergency Currency Board was one of several provincial bodies authorized by the Philippine government-in-exile framework to issue guerrilla currency during the Japanese occupation. These notes circulated in direct competition with Japanese Military Pesos, which the local population largely distrusted and, where possible, refused. Acceptance of guerrilla notes was itself an act of resistance — possession could bring severe consequences under occupation authorities.

Mindanao's geography, with its mountainous interior and dispersed population, made central supply lines difficult for Japanese forces to fully control, which is precisely why guerrilla currency survived longer there than in Luzon.
