chinnotes Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Yes, although the date on the scans is not very clear I think they must be the newest issue, dated 27th April 2010, as they bear the signatures of governor Sheku S Sessay and deputy governor Andrina Rosa Coker. It is the first time I see these notes as specimens and I am surprised that they bear no word “SPECIMEN”. The last series, printed by Thomas de la Rue, shows “SPECIMEN” in red.

Saor Alba Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 The guy on the first note is a candidate for the best looking on a banknote category when we have Popular Banknote Idol sometime in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boydle Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Certainty the first guy must have been particularly highly regarded for such a scary looking man to make it on to a bank note Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
