Russo-Japanese War Issue
(1904)
💴Meiji Tsūhō (明治通宝)💴
Meiji Tsūhō, the first Japanese banknote made with Western printing technology, were planned to be issued with the aim of reforming the monetary system and the substantial effect of the abolition of the feudal clans.
They feature an elaborate design that was difficult to forge at the beginning as counterfeiting was previously rampant with clan notes. All arrivals from Germany were purposely left incomplete due to security reasons, the words \"Meiji Tsūhō\" and the seal of the Minister of Finance were added by the Imperial Printing Bureau first by hand and later by woodblock printing.
Eventually enough Western technology was brought over to Japan that the Japanese government produced some notes domestically.
