KevDownUnderInOz Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Hello folks, I was recently flicking through a bundle of Madagascar 100 Ariary notes, P-86 2004. I noticed the serials were going all funny, then a Z note, more funny numbers, then back to normal. I couldn't find any info regards it, my catalogs end just before it was made. It was a nice surprise to find it. I placed the original pics off the Z note and the note immediately before it here. Madagascar Z note P86 2004 Can anyone enlighten me as to what I have found.?

KevDownUnderInOz Posted August 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Hi Dave, I went back and read that page again, spotted the email address, and asked for their thoughts. (Meanwhile, madly looking for more.) The Bank of Madagascar have an excellent page of the history of their banknotes and images.

Dave M Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 It's a nice page of pictures of the banknotes (what a collection that would be!), but I don't see much "history" there unfortunately. One data point, Madagascar became independent of France in 1960, and left the CFA in 1973. You can see what happened to their banknotes during that transition.
