asian note collector8888 New Member Malaysia 36 Posts	Posted 03/23/2009 09:27 am Hi,nice to see you all again.Let me show all of you what are the most special chinese notes I have ever seen so far as a chinese banknote collector.Beside that,I also think that this is the most expensive chinese notes than the rest of the chinese notes in time to come.It is hard for me to believe in my own eyes that the 1,2,5,10 yuan prefix start with EB and their eight digit number are all 88888888(prosperous prosperous prosperous prosperous prosperous prosperous prosperous prosperous)except for the 50 yuan prefix starting with BQ and the number is still all 88888888.I was too surprised to see this notes especially the 1,2,5,10 yuan notes with the same PREFIX and NUMBER except for the 50 yuan note and this five notes that come together in one set.As far as I know,the chinese note with this number all 88888888 only one copy is in existance in one hundred millions of the similar notes,it is extreamely difficult to come by,the most curius thing is all the four notes with the same prefix and number,I was shock and damm curious how did all this four notes comes together in one whole set,I really have no idea and cant believe in my own eyes everytime when I look at it.Hopefully someone can help me to explain this notes,help is always apprieiciated,thank you.

wd1040 Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 03/23/2009 1:25 pm There are people that especially put together sets of these notes with the same number, although not always all 8s. As for the serial, notes of this series (I think) have serial numbers that are reused once the entire sequence is used. I have seen small denomination notes of the same number, both real. As for all 8s, there's at least 26*26=676 of these, which is still extremely rare considering the number of Chinese notes in circulation. Report this Post to the Staff
gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 03/23/2009 9:10 pm I think you better look at the serial number closely - there is some shocking claim about a collector that collects straight serial numbers like you but when he bought a Chinese banknote, the serial number was altered. I really do hope that isn't the case for you.

Usually, these same-number notes are sold in bookstores for some outrageous price like 1338 RMB. Report this Post to the Staff
