At the moment I have bought some random notes but I'm aiming to get the following during this year:

 

UK

 

Series B £5 Britannia Head

 

Series C £5 & £10

 

Series D £20 William Shakesphere

 

Series F £20 Adam Smith - although technically these won't be worth anything over their face value for ages it's often hard to get a £20 uncircualated & £20 go up quite a bit in value once out of circulation.

 

Any banknote featuring Queen Elizabeth II, the Eastern Carribean states are quite interesting & so are some of the crown dependancy notes (Isle Of Man, Jersey, Guernsey, Falklands, Gibraltar & St Helna and Ascension). Would also like to get the Austrlian $5 & New Zealand $20 with Lizzie on :ninja: and any of their notes prior to the current QEII designs, I believe New Zealand used to have her on every not till the polymere ones were introduced. Canada also have some interesting ones of QEII as well

 

USA notes from $1-$50 in green seal, large head & colourful versions (Not sure of the official names for these)

The Jordanian note is great. Love the colors.

Something really sticks out at me with the Turkish collage... don't quite know what it is...

 

 

Oh you mean the Turkish belly dancer ? :ninja:

Yup. That's a famous QEII note but it took me sometime to figure it out which were actually the palm or coconut leaves that spell the word "sex" ;)

These two little Peruvian girls caught my eyes when I was looking for materials creating the Peru solid 555555 section. Both come from different photograhers but their expression are similiar. Both have a hair clip at the end of their hair-do. When deciding the design during the creation, with these two little faces, I dropped the rest of the ideas to introduce the beautiful scenaries of Peru. After all, in every creation, there is one or more native children appearing. As always, banknote collecting starts from a young age and cultivating and introducing children into this hobby is definitely beneficial. In addition, they learn something about the world through the banknotes.

 

Enjoy :ninja:

I have not created the section for UK ( England ) yet. Since you are a Londoner, maybe you can make some suggestion. Big Ben maybe...or London Bridge. ... I probably need a child or children photos for it. Any ? Otherwise, I will be introducing some strangers into the creation.

 

I have one question. Under UK, it should comprises of Ireland, Scotland, England etc. Should I named it as England section instead of UK section since I do have a section on Ireland.

 

Thanks :ninja:

You could probably find plenty of pictures of youths on www.bbc.co.uk/news search under ASBO :ninja:

 

On a serious note (no pun intended) have a mixture of new & old buildings, country scences, local transport references, sports, etc. for The UK but you would in reality need at least three different areas:

 

England & Wales (as Wales doesn't make their own banknotes)

Scotland

Northern Ireland

 

However it I must point out (if you don't already know) that there are several banks for Scotland & Northern Ireland that issue banknotes, they are the following:

 

Scotland - Royal Bank Of Scotland, Bank Of Scotland & Clydesdale Bank

Northern Ireland - Northern Bank, Ulster Bank, First Trust Bank & Bank Of Ireland

 

Not to mention all of the banks that no longer issue them, thank God for England & Wales, it's easier (Bank Of England only)

 

There's also the crown dependancy islands as well: Isle Of Man, Jersey, Guernsey, Falkland Islands, St Helena & Ascension Islands and Gibraltar.

 

I may have missed one from that lot but there are quite a few crown dependancy areas.
