New 2,000-yen banknotes include 9,000 misprinted ones

TOKYO, Japan - Photo shows a misprinted 2,000-yen banknote. The Finance Ministry said July 21 some 9,000 of the newly issued 2,000-yen banknotes were misprinted but it has no plans to recall them because the misprint does not invalidate them. Some 5,000 of the misprinted bills have already been put in circulation through the Osaka branch of the Bank of Japan (BOJ), the central bank, the ministry said.
