Are these the plastic notes? I have heard they have these, just never have seen one...someone I work with who is stationed in Indoneasia said he saw some.
It's you. Guess you set your forum prefs to not display signatures; in that case you won't see them. Here is the link that De Orc has in his sig: http://www.banknotebank.com/?collection=De-Orc Christian
What is quite strange is that some of them try to incorperate watermarkes or even security threads that are just lines on the plastic LOL I assume that this is to make the note closer to what people are use to :smile
Well three more to add to the collection well two realy as I am not too sure of the status of the Chatham Island note but like it anyway LOL Chatham Islands $3 2000 Multi Millenium Issue Front.

I use polymer notes daily here in Australia. If you don't mind circulated notes, I am more happy to send it over at face value. (although I guess UNC notes would be VERY nice)
Yes I have to say I am addicted to them LOL, I picked up my 1st one as part of my UK collection and it has gone from there I dont mind if they are circulated as long as they are in good condition LOL I do have one Australian Polymer so far $5 1995/2001 Pink/Purple/Orange Governor I J Macfarlane Sec Treasaury K R Henry Front Eucalyptus leaves , HRH, Value above security window Rev Old & New Parliament House Canbera Polymer P57 And I am waiting for delivery of a book on Polymer notes
Don't collect paper money myself (heck, what am I doing in this particular forum? ), but I came across this catalog some time ago: http://www.swschwedt.de/kunden/polymernotes/files/kb_demo.zip (PDF, 10 MB or so) That is not the current issue, just a limited demo version of the 2005 edition. The catalog is in English (not perfect English methinks but understandable); the website is here: http://www.polymernotes.de/ By the way, that site also has a link to a little movie, in French, about the concept and the production of polymer notes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ere1orNZmk0 Donc si vous parlez ou comprenez français ... Christian
OOOOh I like ! I like ! I have just begun collecting polymer notes. Don't have as many as you do though Thanks for sharing
Thank you Christian that is the book I have on the way, but who knows when it will get to me specialy with the postal strikes at the moment :headbang:
Christian, I have this book. Is there any difference between this book and your book? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...Sell_LogicX&refwidgettype=cross_promot_widget Thanks.
OOps my mistake what I should have wrote is I have the same book due as fellowcollector owns and am going to but the book you mentioned on cd :smile FC can I ask what do you think of the book you have? I am waiting for my copy to arrive LOL I do have there book on Banknotes of Queen EII & I think that one is great
De Orc, I am fairly new in (polymer) banknote collecting. So would say the book I have is very informative especially for a newbie. Here is a sample page inside, showing one of the three polymer notes I have. This book is the softcover. Would have prefered the hardcover. http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1066/990618836_cd828fbba3_o.jpg FC
Yep thats the sort of thing that I want so I can carry it around easily, if it is like the QEII book it will have a check list in the back I am waiting on my Bangladesh note to arrive What are the other two that you have?
The other notes I have are Australian $5 and a Nigeria 20 naira, unfortunately has been folded and was the very first on I received which lead me polymer collecting. Is this what you mean? Maybe you can answer a question for me. I see some of the notes have a light green colored box I don't know what this mean. Can you help?
There are two free sites that features polymer notes: http://www.polymernotes.org/ http://www.polymernotes.com/ Both sites are cool.
