Japan Bank of Japan 1000 Yen ND (1945) Pick 45s3 Specimen PMG Choice Uncirculated 64. A simply beautiful design, and the highest denomination of this short-lived series issued right after World War II. The economic situation in Japan was dire at the time, rendering these high face value notes unsuitable, leading to their demise after only a few months in circulation. This Specimen was created from a fully issued banknote, then overprinted and hole punched cancelled. Scarce in this format and desirable. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/japan-bank-of-japan-1000-yen-nd-1945-pick-45s3-specimen-pmg-choice-uncirculated-64/a/4035-28287.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchivesCurrency-WorldPaperMoney-4035-01062022 HID08706262019 © 2020 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
