Today I was very happy to get this in the mail. I needed a pick-me-up and it did the job pretty good. It's AUNC due to a little edge dings. This thing is huge - 8-3/4 inches wide by 4-3/8 inches high.

I got this in the mail today. I've always liked the back of this one for some reason - Plus I got it at a hefty discount too, which always makes it better!

Another pleasant transaction! Quick Shipping, Nice communication, great deal. Thanks!

Djibouti P38d 5000 Francs Not Dated (1979)

My latest collected piece. A Portugal 1989 1000 Escudos Solid 55555.

 

 

Fantastic addition to your collection!

I finally got one of these that isn't a remainder!

1926 1000 Cash local banknote Yu Shueng Te

Seems like this one took forever to get ahold of. There's one left in this series that I need now.

Welcome Home! I hope you're back for a long time!!!

You certainly have a great set of new notes going on there! It's always a treat to see what you've added.

I don't really collect these, but for $1.99 USD for the set, I thought what the heck!

De LaRue Test Notes - Identical on both sides

 

Detail of the Magyar princess.

I wonder if they really wore all those grapes on their ears?!?

Must be an ancestor of the Princess Leia on Star Wars.

Man, scrolling past those at just the right speed is like watching Japanese Animation... almost gives one a seizure!

But they sure are awesome looking notes! Congrats on the latest aquisition

Alright, this was an impulse buy. I simply had to have it. Though I had seen the front before, I had never seen the reverse until the other day. Something about it just had to be mine.

I got a whole mess of notgeld lately, and I like the whole lot. Now I know these are about two cities grousing over Hamburg taking their milk and fruit, but today I was looking at one series in particular, and I thought - hey!

Doesn't this have a resemblance to the creature from the black lagoon?

and this one just reminds me of the Budweiser frogs!

Made me wonder if Hollywood didn't have some notgeld collectors in their midst!

This one is the only piece known.

On the Krause is mention that wasn't circulated because of "Non adopted design". Looks like was circulated, but i never seen this notes circulating here.

The Krause Nº is 124.

 

 

I hope you enjoy this. More information on the next posts.

Wow, that's weird to find a circulated note that wasn't supposed to be circulated. Wonder what it's story is?

Got these nice guys in today. I really like the Jordan issue, even with the muted coloring.

This one sailed into my mailbox today and discovered a safe port to stay.

Received in today from Hong Kong, China this lovely note.

It is a year 1926 2 Tiao from China - Changtung, Pingdu, Shui Chang Xiang .... Well, let's just say China.

OK it has to be said that is a seriously dramatic banknote LOL Swiss?

Indeed it is Swiss. Dates 1970.

For a long time I had thought that it was depicting a warrior type scene, perhaps a fallen comrade, or a wounded foe, but it isn't. It turns out that this is a depiction of a generous act by St. Martin who, coming across a cold, shivering beggar, cut his cloak in half, along with a loaf of bread, and said 'this is all I have, but I will share it with you'.

As far as I know the child on the front with a lamb is allegorical. There are two larger denomination notes in this series... I don't know that I will be able to afford them, or be able to find them. I've seen the 500 for sale once, but I have never seen the 1000 franc.

..... that saudi dude is one funny-looking guy.

That's primarily why I got it!

Well, today I picked up the last that I had on order. It isn't in great shape, but it's getting harder to find these in XF or Better, so for now I'll be satisfied with this. (Should have got it earlier when they were more commonly seen).

Well, after a bad week at work, when I came on Friday, I was surprised to find that all my ordered notes from separate dealers all came in… well, actually, one came in yesterday, but it was registered mail, so my wife went to the post office to get it for me. While she was gone, another registered mail notice was left on our door! So I still have to get that one tomorrow!

Anyhow, I was very pleased to go over my new notes I’d been looking forward to getting - Especially as they are all notes I have been wanting for a while, but just not able to track them down.

Got in a few Yemen and one Syria banknote today.

Well have just recieved my 1st 100 world Banknotes and am quite pleased these 2 from Cambodia realy did take my fancy, I love images of the old asian temples Hope that you guy's like them. Also will try to get my British Army notes scaned later.

Nice notes, De Orc! And congrat's on your first new notes!

Got this Belgian note in today. Belgium 100 Francs/20 Belgas note P107(36) from 1943. It's a pretty big note - about 4.25 X 7.0 inches.

Just arrived today....i like the costa rica 5 colones, got it for US$1.00. All this notes are very colourfull...

Nice lot of notes there, Naidu - I think that Costa Rican 5 Colones note is a very popular design amongst most people. It was one I had to have too!

The first bits of my collection

 

Some AU-UNC Euros (3x 5 Euro, 3x 10 Euro, and 1x 20 Euro)

Nice start! Are they all from the same country? You'll have to post them in Banknotebank.com too! Congratulations!
