But still, it can't be worth more than a few dollars, but is still interesting because it's a resistance note. Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16817 Posts	Posted 02/12/2009 07:54 am Actually, the first one (the JIM) has a JAPWANCAP stamp. The Japanese War Notes Claimants Association of the Philippines was a lobby group that attempted to obtain full face value for Philippine JIM through the courts, well after the war was over. An attempt which, as you can probably guess, failed. Interesting, but they counterstamped far too many notes for it to be considered valuable. The second note is actually from Laos; the coat of arms has lost it's hammer-and-sickle these days, but otherwise it looks much the same today. This is a 20 kip from the 1979 series. The last one is a Hungarian 20 pengo from the 1941 series, before the post-war hyperinflationary period. 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
