Dave M Posted October 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 That's a beautiful and rare note, Madison! I haven't seen too many recent postings of French notes either, but then I haven't been finding them myself. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Travis Focker Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Anyone have the Reunion 1000 Francs / 20 Noveaux Francs overprinted note? That'd be a nice score for anyone who collects portraits of women on banknotes. Some lucky guy on banknotebank has one, although apparently he couldn't be bothered to put up proper scans: http://www.banknotebank.com/viewnote/895994 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMMM Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Here's mine, it is a nice note. Dave Slight understatement there Dave. I think it is a wonderful note. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave M Posted October 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Nice! Any story behind how you got it? No great story... I picked it up 15 years ago, before prices were shooting up, for $90. In retrospect, I wish I'd bought a lot more back then! Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Travis Focker Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 90 bucks... wow, that's a deal. Even if inflation adjusted. Did you have the chance to get more of them then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saor Alba Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 There were a select few of notes that could be picked up in the early '80's for a pittance compared to their present prices. I bought up a bunch of Falklands notes back in 1982, when you could buy the Pound notes for $5 or so. Now they trade in the $175-250 range. I have been slowly but surely releasing them into the wild.

William Travis Focker Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 I picked up a Chinese 2000 dragon polymer commemorative note for about $30 as part of another transaction. I knew it was worth maybe $50 at the time but 4 years later now they are in the $300 range. Not sure whether to sell or hold it for further appreciation.

Picked it up for about A$95 about 2-3 years ago, I glad to hear that they have appreciated well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
