Jinan yuan

CUR-V22-JINAN-YUAN · Research draft

A documented account-unit or currency-system transition supports this predecessor identity; not admitted from a specimen or inherited label alone.

One scoped currency identity. Changes to subdivisions, scale, standard, instruments or issuers do not by themselves create children. A distinct account unit can remain a successor.
Dated observations: 1939–1950; this does not establish the entire lifetime.

In the Jinan/Taihang jurisdiction, compulsory Jinan-denominated trade and public accounts displaced fabi use. The1942 rule required fabi conversion into Jinan before local dealings. This is scoped local replacement, not all-China succession or an assertion that every old debt was uniformly converted.
