Although there was speculation that Japan intended to take over the United States during World War II and printed money to this effect, the $10 notes were in fact created for use in Malaya, which had been conquered by Japan in early 1942. Abandoned and left in storage after Japan's surrender in 1945, these invasion notes feature bananas, breadfruit, and coconuts on the front and, on the back, palm trees and a ship steaming on the horizon. 6¼"x 3"; uncirculated condition.
