I had this topic posted in the US Paper Money catagory and wanted to do the same for the Internationals.

I was interested after recently buying the Standard Catalog of World Paper Money and seeing the dates 1368-1960 and was curious to how old is the oldest note in your collection(i cant imagine too many, or anybody, having the 1368 Chinese note)

The oldest in my collection is a Russian 50 Ruble from 1899 (P-8).

These notes aren't too hard to find,and fairly inex[ensive, but finding them in decent condition is an issue sometimes.

@BisonMatt, the condition ain't great. Edges are worn and stained, but still a great note. If only the front were are colourful as the back is.

My oldest is this fractional Canadian from 1870. Not really in the best of shape, but is still one of my favorites.
