banknote from chile

here is a really nice banknote from chile

i really like this note because of the detail of the ship
its just a pity about the condition of the note
I'm unsure of the date of this note at best guess 1962 to 1975

As you can see i have added some new and much better condition banknotes these notes also have consecutive serial numbers
this last note is now lost in the world somewhere..

a set of egyptian notes

this is a small set of Egyptian banknotes that i have

four notes all together
these are the Egyptian one pound banknotes they are all dated 1965
i put these banknotes on here because both banknotes are different
if you look both have different colour writing i don't really know why
but its interesting to see both notes side by side
on another note (pun intended!) these are quite large banknotes
so i guess in Egypt these notes really were worth a pound!!!

a nice portugal backnote

this is another banknote that i have

1000 escudos
this banknote is dated 1986 so its the pre euro currency
also on the back of this banknote is what i think is Christopher Columbus  sailing ship looking
