Wow, @NumisRob!  I think that note wins the hardest-working workhorse! I wonder how a note that worn ended up in England.  1943 Dutch East Indies 1 Gulden (P-111)   Edited by CollegeBarbers

This is a real ugly note. I don't know why I have bought this one recently: Brazil, 2 Milreis, P 11, No Date but issued around 1900  |

1990 5 Rupees from Sri Lanka (with vertical design on reverse): -Nice example 'NumisRob' but it looks more like a 10 Rupee to me. I posted this 1952 Five Rupees workhorse on CCF in September. Although in pretty rough shape, I did a quick search on the bay (before buying) & found it to be not as bad as I thought (most of the ones listed were in worse wear). Must have been a real workhorse for Ceylon (former Sri Lanka) as higher grades are very dear & tough to obtain.   |

Orac, love the £50 - thats a big value note. Ireland in 1950, you must have been rich to have one of those. New Zealand only printed a total of 250k £50 notes between 1940 and 1966! yet some 250 million £1! These Fijian fractional notes got very well used and they are amongst the better ones.  No limits on how many could be used, imagine spending £50 of them at once!  Rare at any condition the 2 bob, but it got a work out!   Tropical places like Fiji ensured even high value notes got a work out. The $10 was a scarce note in 1969 and the 2nd highest face value of 6 notes. |

How about this Irish Ploughman £1 (P-8a from 1933)? Not in too bad shape & actually features a couple of work horses  (farmer excluded):  |
