After years of throwing feelers out to get younger family members involved in Numismatic, I finally found one that shows genuine interest. He is interested in Large Sized World Paper Money (Half-Pages and bigger). Does anyone know of any other bills outside of the bills below that will require a 2-pocket or 1-pocket page. Preferably, under $20 UNC; however all suggestions will be appreciated. Lebanon P66, P67, etc...: Thailand P93:
I really like (liked) "All Creatures Great And Small" and was always intrigued when they would pull pound notes out of their pockets and they appeared to be HUGE. Which British notes are these?
Take a look at Egypt P48, Russia P35, Ukraine P35 for three other large notes that might be fun to get him. I can scan them if you want pics, but they are nice.
Prices can vary greatly based on condition, as you know. You can find a bunch with a search of 'large' or 'big', etc. and you can get a good list. These few below are a good start to look at. There are a lot more as you get into searching for them, such as Tibet, African notes before 1950's (and some afterwards). Here a few images of some of the easier to obtain ones in my collection. All of these below should still be selling for less than $30 each on ebay, so shop around. And thanks for getting another collector going! He's lucky to have a family member who can get them started off. Egypt 1964 Germany 1910 Germany 1910 Germany 1922 Be sure to get the one with the eagle on the back - it's the largest of three varieties. Russia 1912 Nepal 1951
The Russky 500 ruble 1912 is grand, and the 100 R. is no slouch. The Romanian 105a 100,000 lei 1994 is sorta big, And Zaire 1975 and 1977 , 5 and 10 Zaires are big. All can be inexpensive in "lovingly-fondled" grade. ... and Polish Marks sometimes.
Imperial Russian notes are huge. The 1912 100 and 500 will absolutely require a one pocket page. You can get each for like $10 or so in circulated condition.
"Lighthouse" (Ebay) makes a huge semi-rigid? [not limp cellophane] top loader you can trim to fit. 204 X 123. (8"x5" sort-of)
