  1. Finally found one of these that I liked at a reasonable price.
  2. Finally got a buddy to keep my one dollar bill from 1917 company. Too bad my scans always come out so crappy.
  3. That's me brother. I was living the good life in Thailand, but moved to DC two years ago. A little while back, I won an all-expense paid 6-month trip to Afghanistan. That's where I am writing this from. Unfortunately, I did not bring my Thai note collection with me. Overall, it is solid from 1948 to date (missing three notes that I can recall), but I need to do some work on the late 30s and early 40s issues. My wife tells me I have all the 2007 commemoratives waiting for me when I get back home. If I can find some extra time, I'll try to do a giveaway of some new Afghan notes. Dave
  4. Scottishmoney, You are spot on about the lower grades of older Cambodian notes...I have the same note as the one you just acquired, but not as good condition. I picked it up in Cambodia while I was, among other things, taking the photo in my avatar. Dave (not a Captain anymore...I just like coffee and alliteration)
  5. 1917 US $1. Looks a little better in person. What can I say? I suck at scanning these things in.
  6. The Chief is certainly on my list of "must have" notes. I just have to wait until my wife blows a lot of money on something stupid. Then I'll have license to purchase. Unfortunately, she'll probably never spend enough to justify me buying the $5 educational note. Dave
  7. Thanks man. I was feeling guilty for buying a few of the disney $1 notes. Now I can show your post to my wife and say, "hell, at least I didn't spend $50 on funny money!"
  8. Tiff, I have an extra 55, 61, 62D, and 64 that you can have to fill holes. None of them are that great (that's why they are extras), but I'll send them to you for free if you want them. Dave
  9. Part 3 of 3: Too bad the currency is only used to make change for items costing less than one US dollar. Fortunately, most places where I was took Thai baht also, or it would have been a pain to find US dollars to pay with everywhere.
  10. Part 1 of 3: Here are a few of the notes I brought back from Cambodia last week. I apologize for the scan not being particularly good, but I was trying to get a lot of notes scanned in very quickly. Dave
  11. Thanks for the coins. I am looking forward to seeing them when I get back to the States on my next trip. Let me know if you need anything from the Land of Smiles!

  13. Oooooh...I've always wanted to have a few of those "reb" notes. I've got some civil war notes from the good side. Seems like the folks that collect confederate currency must really like it because the prices seem to be awfully high. If you know of a good place to get them, let us know.
  14. 1996 Commemorative 50 baht polymer note. I thought this was pretty neat since it is not the regular issue polymer that they used to have here.
  15. I just ordered: Standard Catalog of World Coins Standard Catalog of World Paper Money Standard Catalog of US Paper Money They are all the 2004 editions, but I got them from half.com for a total of $16.97 plus shipping. I just couldn't resist the bargain. The new editions cost $87.11 total plus shipping on amazon. Ouch!
