Description

200 yuan China banknote, issued by the Central Reserve Bank of China in 1944.

It includes the letters U, S, A, and C hidden across the obverse and reverse faces of the note.

When assembled, the letters spell out the prophecy "United States Army [is] Coming," a message that angered the Japanese and resulted in efforts to have the issue recalled.

This message has been attributed to the engraver Chung Kue-jen, and its discovery by the Japanese caused him to flee to Hong Kong for the duration of the war to escape punishment.

Letters are hidden in the 200 yuan banknote (U and S on reverse; A and C on obverse)
