    I just got this world currency book today. I won it on ebay. There are some really nice bills in here. Here are a few examples. I really like the US 5. Its Gem Uncirculated its from 1981 series.....very very nice. Thought I would share :) All ths bills are Uncirculated. I thought it was a good buy at 81.00. The 5 dollar bill is worth $30.00 all by itself. I think I did good :)

    No that was the only one. My max bid was 100.00 but shipping was a little pricey at 15.00, but then again the book is heavy. Each sheet has a piece of currency on it. Its not glued to the page its in a little sleeve so you can take the bill out to look at the reverse if you wanted to. each page has a lot of detail about the country where the bill came from each page looks like this. Also each page has its own little flag. Its really neat. :)
    Here are all the different bills and info pages.

    republic of panama

    $81.00 with 15.00 shipping. So 96 total. Not bad I think. I mean, if i had to buy all these note plus shipping for each note it would of been well over 200.00 there is a card in here that has all the original membership form . Its says that each cover cost 9.95 to get . so with 32 covers that comes out to
    $318.40. And there were suppose to be more covers in there but it ended.

    World Currency - Providence Mint Collection

    Next time may have just come, I have a bunch of these (maybe 100 +) that were gifts growing up. Need to liquidate in order to provide care for my grandmother. Will update in a day or 2 with the complete list. Anyone interested or should I just document for eBay?
