The second is Asian but you'll have to look this one up. You can try google. Report this Post to the Staff
amida17 Pillar of the Community United States 4897 Posts	Posted 07/01/2012 11:27 am The second one is a Chinese 1 Fen Truck note. First one, I would guess, is British military pay script? Report this Post to the Staff
ammarabdulfattah Valued Member Egypt 139 Posts	Posted 07/01/2012 3:16 pm Aha, thanks a lot guys. I have about 2 others of that British note in different denominations. Do they have any value? Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16816 Posts	Posted 07/01/2012 6:41 pm Minimal value for either, I'm afraid. They're the sort of notes that are often given away for free in newspapers or breakfast cereal. The British Armed Forces Special Voucher has been demonetized; it's no longer worth 50 pence at British Army canteens. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

aiglet7 Pillar of the Community Canada 695 Posts	Posted 07/01/2012 7:58 pm The 1 Fen Chinese note was part of a series issued in 1953. The 2 Fen depicted an aircraft and the 5 Fen a ship. Only those with a serial number on them hold any value for collectors today. The example that you have has, as Sap has pointed out, minimal value. Report this Post to the Staff
ammarabdulfattah Valued Member Egypt 139 Posts	Posted 07/02/2012 6:49 pm Aha I figured also. It's ok, as long as I like how it looks I'm keeping it :) Report this Post to the Staff
Anaximander Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 709 Posts	Posted 07/02/2012 7:16 pm I have one of those Chinese notes also. it is quite small, about the size of a bus ticket. It cost me 25p in EF. Report this Post to the Staff
ammarabdulfattah Valued Member Egypt 139 Posts	Posted 07/03/2012 09:54 am Yeah actually it is very small and that is why I doubted its originality. Report this Post to the Staff
