Korean (no date) issued 1946 Bank of CHOSEN. Shows no serial - block number only.

For pricing - I would look at ebay as there are some up right now.

Very cool note wheat!

Hello!

This and the others are the Bank of Joseon 10 Won Banknotes that were printed beginning on 1 OCT 1946. Here in Korea they run well over $100 in UNC condition and just based off the pictures you have, I'd say the condition is pretty awesome. However, while they may be priced that way, they don't normally hit that price without some help from PMG. These prices are also for Korea and not other countries. If you have over thirty of these in this same condition, you have a nice little treasure in your hands.

The biggest problem is they don't sell like that on ebay. Other than collectors here in Korea, not many people are into this era of Korean banknotes. I personally love the crap out of these. Did you look closely and check to see if the colors are exactly the same on all of them? The 10 Won has several different color schemes and each of them are worth different amounts of money.

Thanks for the info. I forgot I posted this thread.. All of the notes are the same, even down to the block number. However, the backs on some have slightly different shades. Does that make a difference in value?
