Great note! 100 Guilder was a large sum of money back in 1951, the 2½ and 1 Guilder coins were silver, so this note would have been around 350 grams of silver!

Actually, an early 1950's gulden contained 0.720 x 6.5 grams = 4.68 grams of silver, whereas a rijksdaalder contained 0.720 x 15 grams = 10.8 grams of silver. Thus, the 100 gulden note would be worth anywhere from 432 to 468 grams of silver!

I picked up this 100 Kronur (P-30) from Faroe islands a couple weeks ago. I saw the design (with the fish tail & fishing village years ago & thought it would be a nice design to add to my collection):

I picked up 5 NZ Millennium notes at auction just over face. Condition EF and VF Commemorative banknotes are occasionally printed and only 1,510,000 were issued. The polymer $10 note was issued in 2000 to mark the beginning of the new millennium. This note is very different from the standard fifth-series $10 note and does not feature a portrait. Instead it depicts a Maori waka (canoe) sailing towards the sun on the obverse side, with the words 'The dawn of a new era lights the way for New Zealand's perpetual voyage of innovation and discovery' within the clouds. On the reverse side, popular New Zealand outdoor activities are represented - surfing, skiing, beach-going, sky-diving and kayaking. The phrase 'Celebrating New Zealand's free spirit & quest for adventure in the new millennium' curves between the images. This note was issued for general circulation but its collectable characteristics mean it is not much seen. The CI 00 was the last prefix and demands a slight premium.
