Halved Indonesian banknote; similar case and grading them? [resuelto]

After independence, a rather large variety of banknotes was circulated in Indonesia by different issuers (pre-independent colonial gov, provisional gov, occupying army, etc). Due to the large amount of currency by 1950, the then minister of finance Sjafruddin Prawinegara introduced a plan to reduce the amount of circulating money: literally cut your banknote in half (some banknotes were exempted). The left half was to be replaced with a new national banknote (at half of face value), and the right half for a government bond with a 3% coupon. This is referred to in Indonesian textbooks now as "Gunting Sjafruddin" or Sjafruddin's scissors. Sellers sometimes use the phrase "sanering."

I haven't found reference where a similar strategy was applied in other country's banknote, and curious if there were other cases and how to grade such halved banknote. Those that are for sale online has different conditions, some are soiled and some seems to be in rather good shape imho - besides the fact that the other half is missing. For example:

I have a couple of such halved banknote. How to grade them in Numista's catalogue. Does the fact that it is cut made all of them G or not even that?

Thanks in advance

The only notes I can think of that were cut are more like food stamps or bonds. This is the first time I have heard about halved currency though they may have done this during colonial times when money was scarce.

" Does the fact that it is cut made all of them G or not even that?"

-I don't think the cut would make the remainder a 'Good' grade. Each cut note would need to be appraised on its own. The cut would need to be documented (like note has been cut into half) in a similar fashion as the "staple holes at issue" being listed for most currency from India.

You should be grading the quality of the remaining paper & document any other impairments/issues. I'd imagine UNC would be difficult to find, so likely grades would fall between G to AU (& any other issues to be documented).

"Each cut note would need to be appraised on its own."

Thank you for the information. I'm still not sure what to grade mine as I am new to this, but at least now I know not to automatically deemed it in the lowest category.

Indonesian texts that I came across usually retold Gunting Sjafruddin in a matter-of-fact way, which previously led me to believe that such strategy were common during unstable times. But I could not find reference of similar measure elsewhere.

Hello, there are other very similar examples, like Greece:

Also, some notgeld were designed to be cuttable:

@stratocaster interesting, thank you very much for the link. The notgeld in particular is very intriguing. Curious, is there a special reason why Greece Drachmai are the one that are given their own (cut note) entry?

Greek notes are not the only cut ones. See here another example:

If a circulating cut note is missing from Numista, it's probably just because it hasn't been added yet
