Japan Bank of Japan 1000 Yen ND (1945) Pick 45a PMG About Uncirculated 55. A classic Japanese rarity and the highest denomination of this short-lived series issued at the end of World War II. The Japanese economy was in a state of ruin and inflation was spiraling out of control, which lead the Supreme Command Allied Powers to freeze bank accounts and withdraw high denomination notes. Essentially, this banknote had a lifespan of less than 9 months, which has left surviving examples to be seldom seen today. Only brief circulation heightens this already desirable emission. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/japan-bank-of-japan-1000-yen-nd-1945-pick-45a-pmg-about-uncirculated-55/a/4021-28274.s?type=CoinArchivesCurrency4021 HID08706262019 © 2019 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
