The 1959 issue from the Central Bank of Korea — the DPRK institution established in 1946 — belongs to the first generation of distinctly North Korean paper money developed after the peninsula's division hardened into permanence. A currency reform in 1959 redenominated the won at 100 to 1, effectively wiping out accumulated inflation from the postwar period and resetting the monetary base. This note is a product of that reform, not a carryover.
The printing date of 30 April 1945 in the catalog data is almost certainly a data entry error — that date predates the DPRK itself by three years.
