See, how you able to pair serial numbers across denominations so easily?

 

This New Zealand first prefix numbered set was released by RBNZ. It's limited to 1000 sets. I only bought it recently. Unfortunately, I missed one digit in the serial number. It would have been nicer if it is 000555. Much more closer to my collection theme. Anyway, it is still a good set to keep and enjoy. MMMM also has a set which he posted it earlier in this animal collecting theme topic.

It is too bad you missed the last digit. Some day it may show up.

 

I bleive that the RBNZ releases these sets almost yearly. The problem is getting on the list. I have the 1992 set, but I have seen 1994, 2003 and a 2006.

I noticed a NZ collector has the 000555 set. Anyway, it does not matter. My main collection is solid 5s.

 

Maybe you can check with RBNZ.

Nice.

 

I guess cats are not culturally equated with value or strength, and are not considered worthy of showing up on most banknotes. Cats I would guess are considered independent and uncontrollable. Who would want to give that image on their money unless there was a bit of a money crises going on.

As far as cats go, I have only one. A few years ago a supplier had a few German Notgeld which had depictions of historical folklore regarding old witchcraft tales, etc. I picked a few of them up, and have not seen any others elsewhere since. This one has a black cat on a witch with a bunch of witches flying and riding off after apparently scaring some motorcoach passengers. There's also the requsted pig from a few posts back as well.

Dave,

 

That Macedonia 10 denar is very colorful.

 

Good find on the Pig, they are rare. I will have to start looking at Notgeld.

 

I forgot about Ostriches. I think Botswana is the only one that has ostrich's on their notes. I think a Emus on the Australian notes are about as rare. I will need to scan them in.
