Baanos Valued Member Canada 290 Posts	Posted 02/19/2012 3:35 pm Hi, I've noticed on several specimens that along with the classic "000000000" there is another serial number. Concrete example here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vietnam-100...em439cb70518 On this example, am I safe assuming that AA 0006891 indicates this is the 6891st specimen printed of that kind(2004-2006 100,000 dong specimen note)? And if this is the case, the lower the number, the higher the value? How can I know how many specimens of a certain kind were printed ? I would like to know if a number is relatively low. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Thomcollects Valued Member United States 240 Posts	Posted 02/21/2012 8:58 pm So weird. The serial number down the side is all zeros. I've seen all zeroes, and I've seen serial numbered specimens, but never both on the same note. Unpriced in the new Standard Catalog Report this Post to the Staff
Baanos Valued Member Canada 290 Posts	Posted 02/22/2012 08:52 am Really ? That is odd, it says 55$ for UNC in the 17th edition and unpriced for VF. You have the 18th ed I assume ? Report this Post to the Staff
Thomcollects Valued Member United States 240 Posts	Posted 02/24/2012 12:50 pm Baanos, you are right. I was looking at my 16th edition when I replied. Oops. Report this Post to the Staff
