Default ID Shanghai note

First of all you have the front and back scans reversed.

It looks like a "doctored" 1 Yuan note S2456 found in the Krause catalog
volume one, specialized issues.

Front: Kwantung Provincial Bank, 1 Yuan, 1949 with the portrait of Dr. Sun
Yat-Sen replaced by a dragon.

Back: Kwantung Provincvial Bank replaced by The Shanghai Provincial Bank. By
the way, we all know Shanghai is a city, not a province.
1000 added below 1 Yuan. 1949 changed to 1932.

Hi everybody,

A friend of mine give me for identification an asian dark-blue note from
Shanghai Province Bank dated 1932 with a face value of 1,000$ and ther'a
a kind of house or pagode on it.

On the reverse there're a dragon head in an ovale on the left side and
some writing in chinese, twice a serial number 6 digit numbers(roman)
and twice the letters AA on each side of 2 chinese caracters.

In my opinion because of the high value of the note and the fact I
didn't find it in the World PaperMoney from Krause edition It's an Hell
Note whom people use to offer an burn when the member of their familly
die.

Is there someone who can give me more information an maybe a value (if
there is one).

You can find some picture of this note with the links below;
