  1. Z for Drahomir Zobek, designer of all the circulation issues.
  2. I love those old Yugoslav notes!!! Hopefully, I can start adding some to my collection, soon.
  3. a couple of modern notes printed in France (FCO) for you
  4. scored a good haul today at work. went to the bank to get change for the register, got 1 roll of nickels & 6 rolls of pennies (didn't really need nickels, but didn't need 10 rolls of pennies, either). anyway, the teller threw them into the bag, along with the dimes and quarters (3 US Mint rolls of '04 Texas). got back to the restaurant, went to toss the rolls into the bottom of the safe, when something caught my eye. the single roll of nickels had a single word written on it -- "silver". opened it up, sure enough, a whole roll of war nickels!!! all of them are well circulated, but did find 2 lamination errors in the lot. my coin-junkie neighbor bought the roll off me for $30.00. not a bad return on $2 in less than 8 hours time.
  5. Lightning fast purchase and payment. Thanks Art!!!
  6. Mircea was gracious and helped me fill a desperate hole in my collection. Thank you very much!!
  7. Another site to enjoy the variety of test notes (although in German, the pictures speak for themselves!) gallery
  8. Long overdue here. I purchased a few great coins from Harri a while back, and he was prompt and courteous. Great looking coins, thanks!!!
  9. Need to talk to banivechi. He lives in Romania, could probably work out a fair trade with you.
  10. Working in a restaurant that handles a lot of cash, and having all the cashiers know that I collect coins is always a good thing. Today, the cashier approached me with a dull looking piece of metal and asked if it was Canadian. I told her no, it was American, just old. I traded her a new quarter for it, and went about my business without really looking too closely. (I don't collect US stuff, so I only look to get stuff like this to pass on to other collectors). An hour or so later, on a smoke break, I dug it out. Not the greatest thing in the world, but still something very unusual, especially in the smaller, somewhat rural town that I am in. Headed to the auction section to list it, now. Anyone interested??

    Fast payment!! Thanks!!! Shipped out this morning.
  12. Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that the difference in flan thicknesses has nothing to do with how thick the coin is. The difference is in the thickness of the upturned "rim" edge of the coin. The normal variety, as with the other dates and other denominations, has a quite thick "rim", while the variety has a much thinner "rim".
  13. It is dated 1991. The Afghani's use the solar Hijri calendar. To determine the actual year, take the SH year (1370 on your note) and add 621. edit to add: It is listed in the SCWPM as P#61c. 61a is dated SH1358 (1979) 61b is dated SH1369 (1990)
  14. My latest addition, that I am proud to show off anywhere I can.
