About the Book
Information about Burmese coins and banknotes has previously been hard to obtain, being scattered in several publications either long since out of print, or not generally available, or inaccessible to a large public through being in Burmese. This book attempts to cover in detail all the issues of Burma and Arakan, concentrating particularly on the period from the sixteenth century to the present. The text is fully illustrated, most of the banknotes being in colour. Much new material from contemporary chronicles, reports and letters is published here for the first time. Two of the chapters deal with Japanese and British World War II banknotes and so it is hoped that the book will also prove useful to collectors of military currency.
