Japanese war-time note...

[yakker]

I have this note 'One Peso, The Japanese Government with a stamp indicating war-time (unable to read much more than that from the stamp) "0700695". Not in the best condition w/ deterioration at edge and folds. Dad brought it back from the war... In pocket...

Any information would be very welcome. Thank you in advance. Yakker

FWIW - Jump over to EBay and enter (with quotes): "One Peso" "Japanese Government" Many of the listings also provide history...

It's a 1943 Philippines 1 Peso from Japanese Occupation. It's worth less than $4.
