Dave M Posted April 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Dave M, Thanks. You have a remarkable French and French printed banknotes collection which include a beautiful website to showcase and enhance the beauty of the notes. I believe both Madison and you have the best collections of French / French notes on internet. Keep up the work. Thank you sir! I have recently had a nice gentleman offer to translate the site to Polish! So now it's available in English, French and Polish... I think that's pretty neat. He did a great job, with tons of content to translate. Here's a new note from me. I've never seen this note in Unc, this one's about an AU.

So far I am not having a lot of luck finding the 500 Franc note from ca. 1939. This is a lovely note and a great addition to your collection.

Dave M Posted April 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Thank you Dave, I've been eying the lists for a nice one to show up, and finally made the move. I'm not sure this one's quite as nice as the one that got away, but its very good and fit right in to my collection since there was a spot waiting for it Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

see323 Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Finally arrived from Europe after a long wait. Low serial 005. UNC with water marking brown stain. The paper is thin. Is this normal ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave M Posted April 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 That's a nice note, I really like the design. Yes, French notes are known for their printing on thin wavy paper, which doesn't (unless it's extreme) detract from value. If you find a French note claimed to be Unc without waves in the paper, run away.... Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave M Posted May 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 Where were these printed and who designed them, does anyone know? That's a very tough note to find in good condition, Mark. Congrats on the find! I do not have details on this note. But the following note from the set was designed by Robert Pougheon, and this one (as well as the third in the set) certainly look like his work as well. I'm pretty sure they are printed by Banque de France, though again I have no absolute confirmation of that. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
