Saor Alba Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Printer's proof from ABNCo, curiously this is of the 1909 issue. All Puerto Rican notes are quite scarce, particularly the issues from after the American rule began in 1898. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saor Alba Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 Indeed, the French Indochina notes are seemingly common - until you want one in high grade. Nice find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saor Alba Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 One of those mysteriously enigmatic notes that appears from time to time in auctions. In the European pursuit of colonialising Africa during the early 20th century four world powers sought one of the crown jewels based on location. We all know in real estate that location location location is key to property. And one side of the Pillars of Hercules, Straits of Gibraltar lay Gibraltar(zealously controlled by Great Britain) and Spain of course. The other side, in what is now Morocco, was pursued by France, Great Britain, Spain, and Germany. Of course nobody asked or really cared what the residents in what is now Morocco thought, and they rebelled with the assistance of an adventurous Englishman, Captain C. Gardiner pursued independence of the Europeans: The government of the Riff existed for a brief period in the early 1920's before having been defeated by the Spaniards. Captain Gardner took it upon himself to print these notes, which is quite apparent that they were printed in Great Britain with references in English and to English money and curiously not pesetas.

Dave Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Neat note, and an exquisite example of one of my favourite things about collecting banknotes – little known histories! I’ve not heard of the Riff Gov't before, but I’ve looked up some other references on this and it’s a great piece of history. And so, I go forth a little more knowledgeable. Thanks for posting!

Dave Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 I was pretty happy to get this in teh mail yesterday. It's my first Large Gold Certificate from 1922. It's also the first note I have (other than a fractional) that has someone different on the face. This one is Michael Hillegas, the first US Treasurer.
