CHINA. Inner Mongolia, Meng Chiang. World War II Japanese Occupation Issue Chiao (10 Cents), Year 738 (1943).KM-Pn3. Struck in aluminum. Commonly mislabeled as a pattern. This is in fact a currency issue struck in Japan for use in occupied Inner Mongolia. Due to maritime transportation problems during World War II, the shipment containing the majority of this mintage never arrived. It is believed the ship caring nearly the entire mintage was torpedoed by allied submarines and the cargo was lost, hence very few examples of this issue had survived. <br />Ex: Ponterio & Associates Auction $143, September 25 & 26, 2007, Lot #2347.<br /> EXTREMELY RARE and historically significant, reportedly only about 12 examples known.NGC AU-53.
