Quote: NumisEd I wrote something about most of the ones on your list over at the neigbors of PMF Thanks @Lighthouse, that is a informative write-up. I also found an interesting article in CoinWeek that talks about the Art of Dutch banknotes designed by Oxenaar. https://coinweek.com/paper-money-2/...note-design/

Another dual denomination from Chile - 20 Pesos/2 Condores. Does anyone know whether the garden/statue on the back is a specific place or just a general representation?

Very nice note! Sorry but can't answer your question, but it looks to me like a real Place.

Thankyou and I agree, from the type of plants I am favouring Alameda Park but can not find a painting/photo etc that would be a match!

@redlock.
Brilliant, many thanks - all my references just say garden and statue including 'Chilean Paper Money'!

I actually got these notes 2 weeks ago, but because my computer was broken, never showed them to now.  South Africa - £10, 1955 Pick - 98 , Vermuyden portrait, Savanna Scene English at top, Afrikaans below.  Gold mines and conveyer belts Note is good Fine towards VF and has some crispness left.  SA - 1 Rand banknotes 1973/75 Pick 115 Group of 10 notes with consecutive numbers - AU/UNC, some have light creases on the top, solid paper.

Weird Australian banknotes with Bizarre serial numbers.   $50 Note 1993 Evans, Fraser signature - however the serial number should be Y or W something not HF! Most likely some souvenir note pack thing as HF stands for Howard Florey, the man on the Obverse. The serial number is very low as well suggesting a limited issue. UNC - Doubt this ever saw any circulation and somewhere the packet for it remains.  2 x $20 notes from 1997 and 1999, again with susso serial numbers that are very low (Low thousands) and possibly from a stamp issue tie in. 1997 note says "Emergency services" and there was an issue of stamps in 1997 about these. The 1999 note has "Maritime Heritage" next to the ship - there was a set of stamps issued in 1999 showing old ships and a tie in issue with Ireland. Again missing from a pack. In 1994 was a stamp showing Florey, but would not be surprised if there was also a phonecard being the mid 90s.

@diverdude, beautiful 50 pesos from Cuba!
@PrinceTane, I really like the last 2 notes you posted from AU. What is your goal for paper money collecting?
