Spain - Republican Government, Silver Certificate for 5 Pesetas

Very nice note.

huh. and I just assumed that your avatar was from a Scottish note. go figure.

Julio Romero de Torres, fantastic Spanish painter of late 19th and early 20th centuries.



And one of his lovely feminine subjects on the reverse.

Spanish Republic, 50 Centimos 1937.

the 100 pesatas is my favorite.

5 Pesetas with a lovely young lady from 1935

Cien pesetas, año 1965(1970).

Very nice engraving work! It reminds me of the style and level of skill seen in the mid/late-1800s before photography came into vogue.

The two 100 Pesetas notes are both very nice looking notes. I like the Julio Romero de Torres one best, though.

Cant pick they is all nice

The Cien Pesetas from 1965 is beautiful. Spain has a lot of pretty and interesting banknotes.

So does Portugal, especially the 50 Centavos of 1918-1920, which I cannot find an uncirculated example. I collect the feminine allegory coins of 1915-1940 also.

Uncirculated example it´s difficult to obtain. Already saw the 1000 Escudos of 1956 and 1961?

Those are on my list too. I love the colours on those, they are amazing notes. I have seen uncirculated examples of the 50 centavos, but they go for about €200-250 or so. Lately most of my acquisitions from there are coming in from Spain. Right now I am expecting almost uncirculated example of 20 centavos of 1922, I like the early small change notes. But I also am looking for nicer 1 Escudo of 1917.
