    De Orc, at the bottom of your sig, it says you have 522 to date ... is that accurate? i see you adding ALOT of notes, but it seems that never changes :D

    To put that in perspective for others. The smallest note that colombia prints today is $1000 pesos, the smallest coin is $20 pesos, and as of today, $1 US dollar buys you $1850 pesos.

    I am not sure what perspective that is :confused: I am a note collector not a currency speculator :eek:

    it told me that the Columbian Peso is not worth much compared to the US dollar... at least not yet :eek:

    De Orc, you have got some great looking notes in your collection. Not to be picky or anything but the notes listed for Argentina are from Brazil. You must still be day dreaming about Brazil.
