| Comments |
The Inner Mongolia People's Bank was a short-lived regional issuing authority operating under the Inner Mongolian Autonomous Government, which had functioned as a Soviet-aligned buffer administration since the mid-1940s. By 1949, the Communist consolidation of China was effectively complete, and regional currencies like this one were being absorbed — or simply rendered obsolete — by the incoming People's Bank of China system. Notes at this denomination level reflect the severe inflation that had eaten through the Nationalist monetary order and left exchange rates in the tens of thousands.
The unlisted Pick status suggests surviving examples are genuinely uncommon in the numismatic record.
