I have heard of foreign Chinese banks doing this but not this particular

If you can find "Chinese Banknotes" by Ward D. Smith & Brian Matravers that
would probably have the answer. The following link is from someone who had a
similar question about Chinese money to yours and has links to people who
may be able to help.
