Well Mike some very nice notes and most of them appear to be Unc.
I'd say for $200 you did okay. If you're going to take up world paper money collecting then I'd recommend the Krause publications: Standard Catalog of World Paper Money 1368-1960 and Standard Catalog of World Paper Money 1961-Present.
I like the Indonesian issues with the birds.

A very nice batch of notes. I especially like the 1959 Indonesia series. They have been among my favorites for a while now.

Biafra is a nice country to collect - there are only a small number of banknotes and coins - most of them are not that expensive or hard to find (exceptions are the Gold coins and 1 Pound note from the 1st series in UNC condition) - it didnt take me that long to put together a reasonable collection - also the history of Biafra is very interesting
