San_Miguel98 Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 here's a new commemorative note issued by the philippine central bank. the design looks like 4-year old scribble. edited to emphasize "commemorative" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottishmoney Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Oh There Is the Fake Note Gee SM98 I have that Excat Same type of Bill up For Auction But Mine is The real thing Anyway i Like The New Philippine Money better Then The Old Central bank money Still have Some Notes And Coins From the Central bank before they Went bankrupt Can you please alight me to this statement about the bank being bankrupt. I looked at this site after seeing the first post: Phillipine Central Bank Where it mentions that all pre 1998 banknotes were demonetized, this was a result of the bankruptcy you mention? I guess all my old 1920's era notes are worthless now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San_Miguel98 Posted July 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Where it mentions that all pre 1998 banknotes were demonetized, this was a result of the bankruptcy you mention? no, it's just a bank policy. SECTION 57. Retirement of Old Notes and Coins. — The Bangko Sentral may call in for replacement notes of any series or denomination which are more than five (5) years old and coins which are more than (10) years old. Notes and coins called in for replacement in accordance with this provision shall remain legal tender for a period of one (1) year from the date of call. After this period, they shall cease to be legal tender but during the following year, or for such longer period as the Monetary Board may determine, they may be exchanged at par and without charge in the Bangko Sentral and by agents duly authorized by the Bangko Sentral for this purpose. After the expiration of this latter period, the notes and coins which have not been exchanged shall cease to be a liability of the Bangko Sentral and shall be demonetized. The Bangko Sentral shall also demonetize all notes and coins which have been called in and replaced. from: http://www.bsp.gov.ph/about_bsp/ncba/ncba_f.htm stock markets crash and economies crumble, but i don't think there's such a thing as a national bank going bankrupt. i think the proper term is "national deficit".

henare Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 what is that thing to the left of the portrait *supposed* to be?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San_Miguel98 Posted July 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 the u.n. microcredit guys claim: the logo best represents the spirit of what microcredit is all about -- a growing and powerful movement that has been making giant leaps forward. The logo depicts power, movement, and speed, each emanating from a strong core -- all descriptive elements of microcredit and where it stands in today's world. We also believe the logo, as a standalone design, will live on to be a strong visual symbol of the Year, long after the year is history. If used properly, it will be memorable and people will see it and know that it is about microcredit and microfinance well...they're definitely right about the memorable part. years from now, i'll still be laughing at it.

San_Miguel98 Posted July 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 heheheh...it's not photoshopped, it's a real note. your note is a regular issue, and this one is a commemorative. the little scribble on the side is special printing for the u.n. year of microcredit. as far as commemoratives go, this note gets my vote for worst design.

cowhodan Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 I traded some of those notes with a Philippine friend some months ago, they are not so bad in person, in fact I like them I think I still have 1 or 2 doubles if someone is interested.

San_Miguel98 Posted July 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 just to clarify, i didn't mean the phillipine 20 peso note was horribly designed. i'm talking about the brand new commemorative note issued for the united nations year of microcredit. compared to other commemoratives, like armenia, scotland, or even disneyland, all this note gets is a big scribble.

ccg Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 I hate countries that demonetize AND make old currency unredeemable. It's so cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burks Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 Get rid of the scribble thing and the note is great. I really like the shield on the right hand side. Very nice and eye catching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San_Miguel98 Posted July 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 i like the regular note too. unfortunately, the philippines isn't very creative when it comes to commemoratives. all they do is print a special graphic/text on the margin of their regular notes. oh well. at least they make an effort, unlike the u.s., who'd rather mint thousands of different coin designs (quarters, nickels, soon dollars & bullion) instead of printing a special banknote. heheh...i like the shield on the right too. i have a variant of it on my little banner below.
