| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Printed in black on a light blue guilloche underprint, the face is dominated by a large bold letter 'B' occupying the centre, serving simultaneously as a security underprint element and principal design device. Japanese characters for fifty sen (五拾錢) appear in the upper centre and at left, with the denomination '50 SEN' repeated at upper right and lower right within a circular cartouche, while the English legend 'FIFTY SEN' and 'SERIES 100' are inscribed in the lower portion. The serial number is printed in blue, framed above and below by ornate scrollwork corner vignettes, with 'MILITARY CURRENCY' across the top border and '軍票' (military scrip) in a panel at the foot. |

A Japanese inscription runs horizontally along the top edge, while the English legend 'ISSUED PURSUANT TO MILITARY PROCLAMATION' is set in a banderole along the lower border, with additional scrollwork ornaments in the lower right corner. |

| Anmerkungen |
The B-series military currency was introduced in 1945 specifically to replace the yellow-seal "Hawaii" notes and the standard Federal Reserve issues then circulating in the Pacific theater. The "B" prefix on the serial numbers allowed occupation authorities to demonetize any currency that had fallen into Japanese hands — or been looted, counterfeited, or stockpiled — simply by declaring the previous series void.
This 50 Sen denomination sits at an odd economic threshold: the Sen had been effectively worthless under wartime inflation, yet occupation planners retained fractional denominations to stabilize retail trade during the transition to postwar price controls.
