Beginning with the capture of the Philippines, the Japanese military confiscated all hard currency, both on a federal and individual level, replacing it with locally printed notes bearing a proclamation of military issue. All notes bear the name of the issuer, “The Japanese Government” while some notes proclaim the “promises to pay the bearer on demand”. Called “Mickey Mouse Money” by local Filipinos It was valueless after the overthrow of the Japanese, and tons of it were burned. Japanese troops were ordered to destroy bank records and any remaining currency prior to capitulation.

Hi everyone! Sorry it's been so long since we last listed auctions. Its a crazy life!! We just had baby #5 :) Listia has been a life saver in the past for us. You guys, our bidders, have been more help then you could ever imagine. You and Listia have allowed us to bid on and win things we could never afford otherwise. Birthday and Christmas gifts, new baby bottles, clothes and blankets, even shoes!
I just wanted to take a minute to say THANK YOU.
