The Customs Gold Unit was a short-lived accounting currency introduced by the Nationalist government in 1948, nominally backed by customs revenue rather than general reserves — a distinction that fooled no one for long. By the time notes of this denomination entered circulation, hyperinflation had already consumed the Gold Yuan reform that preceded it, and the CGU series followed the same trajectory within months.
Printed in-house at the Central Bank's Shanghai works rather than contracted abroad, the series reflects the Nationalist government's increasingly desperate attempt to retain control of currency production as Communist forces advanced. Shanghai fell in May 1949.
