A fact from Japanese government–issued Oceanian pound appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 11 February 2015 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that during World War II, Japanese invasion money for Oceania (pictured) was issued for use in the Gilbert and Solomon Islands, New Britain, and Papua New Guinea?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2015/February.

On 29 January 2023, it was proposed that this article be moved from Japanese government-issued Oceanian pound to Japanese government–issued Oceanian pound. The result of the discussion was moved.

File:OCE-1a-Oceania-Japanese Occupation-Half Shilling ND (1942).jpg to appear as POTD soon

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:OCE-1a-Oceania-Japanese Occupation-Half Shilling ND (1942).jpg and subsequent will be appearing as picture of the day on July 19, 2017. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2017-07-19/1 and subsequent. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 02:18, 8 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of the day

A one-shilling note of the Japanese government-issued Oceanian Pound. This currency was issued during World War II by the Empire of Japan to replace local hard currencies in occupied Oceania, consisting of Guam, Gilbert and Ellice Islands, Caroline Islands, Marianas Islands, Solomon Islands, Palau, and the now-defunct Territory of New Guinea. Notes were printed before invasion and intended to circulate in multiple areas that were to be absorbed into the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. They include the title "The Japanese Government" and a "serial number" consisting of an "O" (indicating issue for Oceania) and a printing batch identifier. After the war, they could be exchanged for United States dollars or Australian pounds.
