Here is a catalog of Icelandic coins and notes: http://www.sedlabanki.is/uploads/files/TheCurrencyofIceland.pdf The book is in Icelandic and English, and some of the "recurring" Icelandic terms are explained in the glossary. The 100 kr note (P#44) is on p.46-47, the 1000 kr note is on page 48; no figures (about how may were printed) there either ... Christian
For anyone who collects banknotes and is in search of an Icelandic banknote here is a quick tip so you can recognize it. Iceland is spelled "Island." It's that simple. I remember getting my first Icelandic banknote and thinking it pertained to some island :hatch: Just thought i'd let you guys no, just in case you come across one and make the same mistake as I.
