I recently bought two Dutch notes, but in hindsight I am not happy about them. As I mentioned in another thread, although the photos on the auction website showed the notes as vibrant in reality they are not.

Those Mexican 20 pesos notes (Benito Juárez) are still around?

While I don't actually collect world notes, I have a few from countries I've worked, traveled or lived in. Occasionally I add to that little stash, and I just got a nice group of notes from a fellow member of a paper money forum (and he's also a member here). Excellent!  |

I have a few from countries I've worked, traveled or lived in. Occasionally I add to that little stash, On my first visit to Europe in 2004, my host (& past university flatmate) pulled out an envelope stuffed with ratty, circulated notes from countries he had visited. It was an impressive thick stash stuffed in a manilla envelope. However, if I asked him about any particular note (who the figure portrayed on the front was/scenery on back, etc) he drew a blank. So that's when I figured I would put together my own Globe-Trotter set but also try to know what I was getting (& in UNC). So here's a later 1993 1000 Korun from Czech Republic with stamp printed on it (P-3c). I like this note because it comes from their early days as they became a free democratic country & portrays BED#344;ICH SMETANA (1824-1884) a famous composer (who worked/lived in Prague). The scenery on the back is also nice a dramatic & I really fell in love with the town square, Charles Bridge, etc of Prague, CR (on a visit 10 years later):   |

Nice note, walk2dwater! Prague was one of our favorite trips; in fact, the wallpaper on my computer screen is a view of the Charles Bridge I took from around Prague Castle back in August of 2003.
