Description
Featuring Lots from the Honshu Collection
JAPAN. Bank of Japan. 1000 Yen, ND (1945). P-45a. SB167. PMG About Uncirculated 53.
First printed in 1942 but never issued, these notes were finally released in August of 1945 as currency shortages necessitated the release of stock kept in the vaults of the Bank of Japan. In the first two weeks after Japan's surrender in World War II, the country faced severe economic turmoil, with widespread shortages of food and essential supplies due to the devastation of the war. Scarce in any grade, this is a lightly circulated example of this important type that faces up well with just a hint of circulation.
From the Honshu Collection.
"本州"系列精選藏品
1945年日本銀行兌換券壹仟圓。
印於1942年，然當時未曾發行，直至1945年8月，日本戰敗，物資匱乏，政府方決議將其自日本銀行金庫中取出，投入流通以解燃眉之急。當時，戰火甫熄，民生凋敝，糧食及生活必需品皆短缺，經濟動盪不安。此版不論品相，皆為稀罕，而此張雖經輕度流通，卻保存完好，實屬難得。
Estimate: $1500.00 - $2500.00
