P#M18 belongs to the second series of Japanese military scrip issued for use by occupying forces across China and Southeast Asia. Unlike civilian Bank of Japan notes, these military issues carried no redemption obligation — the occupying government could simply withdraw them from circulation without compensation, which is exactly what happened in multiple territories after 1945.
The Cabinet Printing Bureau produced these domestically, not in the field, and they were shipped in bulk to military paymasters. Surviving examples are plentiful; enormous quantities were printed and many never reached circulation before the surrender.
