Wyemitowany przez rząd pod okupacją sił alianckich.

Planowano zaprzestanie emisji banknotów o nominale 50 sen, ponieważ nowe mosiężne monety o nominale 50 sen zostały wybite w 1946 r., ale chaos po wojnie, niedobór energii elektrycznej i brak drobnej waluty zmusiły rząd do drukowania banknotów o nominale 50 sen do 1947 r.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Issued by the government under occupation allied forces.

There were plans to stop issuing 50 sen banknotes, as the new brass 50 sen coins were minted in 1946, but chaos after the war, electric power shortage, and the shortage of small currency forced the government to print the 50 sen banknotes until 1947.
