Comments

Oeang Republik Indonesia (ORI) first released in 1946.10.30 to Demonetized Netherlands and Japanese currency. But because the limitations of being a newly independent country, (ORI) couldn't reached every province, Java is the mainland that received (ORI).
For that, since early 1946 to 1947, some province including Banten, Sumatera, and Banda Aceh are given power to print/made their own province currency by Indonesian Government.
