THE 2ND BATCH - CHINA NOTES





The next two Chinese notes from the new batch are above and are both 10 Yuan Notes.

The first one was issued by The Bank of Communications in 1935. The bank still operates to this day. It has electricity pylons on the front and what looks like a fortress temple on the reverse.

The second one above is from 1940 and was issued by the Bank of China . It has  Sun Yat-sen on the front and the Temple of Heaven in Beijing on the reverse.



This one stumped me for a while but it just took a bit of reading up to get the details. This note was issued by the Central bank of China in 1945. It has Sun Yat-sen on the front - apart from the photo and the numerals 500 it is in chinese script which made it more difficult to research.





The notes above are the 1 and 2 Jiao note from the 1980 issue described here
