He gave those two notes in lieu of a tip to a courier who had brought him a message, as the Japan Times reports.
It may have been that he didn’t have any change; it may have been that the courier had refused money. But Einstein had the idea that these small slips of paper might be worth much more than a handful of change one day.
When he had arrived in Tokyo, the scientist had been met by crowds of fans. He had been traveling around the world, giving a series of lectures, in America, in British Palestine, and in southeast Asia. He was in Asia when he received a telegram informing him he had won a Nobel Prize.

Angry and trashing Einstein. And claiming his IQ is more bigly than Einstein's.
a gleam in Einstein's eye....
