| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Intaglio portrait of Chiang Kai-shek in military uniform occupies the right portion of the note, set against a fine guilloche underprint in blue and red. The central field carries large Chinese denomination characters within an ornate medallion, with red serial numbers printed twice across the upper portion. Corner vignettes repeat the denomination value in Chinese characters, and two red seal impressions flank the central device. |

By mid-1949, the Nationalist government's gold yuan currency had already collapsed, and this 500,000 yuan note was part of the frantic final emissions as the Kuomintang lost ground on the mainland. Denominations had escalated with grotesque speed — just months earlier, such a figure would have been inconceivable on a single note. Chung Hwa Book Co. was one of several printers pressed into service as demand for high-denomination paper outpaced any reasonable production plan.
The series saw almost no meaningful circulation before the Communist victory rendered it worthless. Most examples encountered today were saved precisely because they were never spent.
