Guest Aidan Work Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Recently,I bought 3 very nice notes from a certain member from Minnesota,Alex (Friedman);] Bahamas 2001 $1. Bahamas 2002 $1. Singapore 1990 $2. I received in the mail this morning a 50p. British postal order issued on the 4th of April 2005 in Cyprus here; 'UN NICOSIA BFPO 567. 04 AP 05'.This is interesting as it is a Field Post Office issue.This is a remainder issue,because the regulations on the back include the following clause 'This Order is issued in accordance with the relevant Scheme or Schemes under Section 28 of The Post Office Act 1969.' This Act has since been repealed & replaced with a new Act in 2000.I'll get more information later. If you have bought anything in the banknote line,could you please leave a posting (including photos,if possible). Aidan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daggit Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Oh, are the Bahamas notes really 1968 or do they all say that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterMcDoo Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Oh, are the Bahamas notes really 1968 or do they all say that? They're "Law" 1968, but could have been printed as late as 1973. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friedman Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Oh also, I got a fair amount of money from my dad and spent it on these! (Too many pics to post in one post...watch the next few) Oh andI got a scanner so as soon as I have time you'll be able to actually to see my notes as opposed to the barrowed scans.

Guest Aidan Work Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Alex,I know these are from Jordan.When were these issued? The AH & AD dates are there somewhere. I picked up a plastic 1 Pound note from the Isle of Man last weekend.I knew that it was the Plastic Pound,as it is the only green coloured one.All the others are purple. Aidan.

Friedman Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 (Mine's UNC but this is the only scan I could find) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggit Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Great notes. But wheres the crinkles? Aren't they all supposed to be crinkled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friedman Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Hey...told you these were barrowed scans! My actual notes dont have any crinkles really either. Except MAYBE the 1950s 100 Kroner (The one that looks like a giant postage stamp.) but even there it just looks more aged then circulated a whole lot.

bifrost Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Friedman: That is really nice and impressive banknotes! Are you a specialized Norweigan collector? Only a 1000 norweigan crowns bank note have about the face value as a 100 and a 50 USD bill, and the collector value are much higher especially if unc. Today I got in the mail a Macau 50patacas 1981 (presidente signature), Macau 10patacas 1995 Bank of China (in collection because of a AA prefix) and a Portugal 1982 26/10 1000 Escudos banknote.

Friedman Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Are you a specialized Norweigan collector? Joakim Not...really. It is one of my favourite areas of collecting, but its not my only country. Your Macau notes sound nice, got any pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
