This faux money has been in use since at least the late 19th century. The notes are not an officially recognized currency or legal tender since their sole intended purpose is to be offered as burnt-offerings to the deceased as often practiced by the Chinese and several East Asian cultures. The word hell on hell bank notes refers to Diyu ("underworld prison"; also "underworld court"). These words are printed on some notes. In traditional Chinese belief, it is thought to be where the souls of the dead are first judged by the Lord of the Earthly Court, Yan Wang. People believe that even in the earthly court, spirits need to use money. Joss paper is traditionally made from coarse bamboo paper, which feels handmade with many variances and imperfections, although rice paper is also commonly used. The Buy It Now price is for one set of 5 notes, but I have several to sell. What you see in the images is what you’ll get. Please check carefully the items condition, based on the scanned images. I encourage you to ask any questions before you bid. All my items come from a smoke-free home. ref#zvd Shipping: If you bid on multiple items, please wait for my invoice before you pay.
