Good one, Jack. Wish I'd have thought of it.:D Bruce
You know this will be kicking around the internet forever, Ken. Hope your wife never sees it.:eek: Bruce
Yes, Jeff I think it is a real Chinese Hell Note. The notes themselves are made to look like real currency, so any Hell Note is a "copy" of that...
Goes a lot further back than that, Tommy...at least that's what I hear.:D Bruce
It raises the value to me bryantallard. Very nice example! Bruce
Thanks for the link, Chris. I go to all the Baltimore shows. I always find some good obsoletes there...counterstamps too.:) Bruce
I picked up this interesting advertising note a couple of weeks ago and thought I'd post it. C.B. Yohe was an engineer and book seller in Bethel...
Counterstamps appeal to me, physics-fan, because of the issuer's known history, or for the fun of researching them. It's very satisfying to be...

Very interesting history, brg, and very much appreciated. While I have a rudimentary understanding of the Conder Tokens, I wasn't aware of the...
If you like it, peaches, it's NOT junk! Collect what you want, not what someone else wants. I like your note. Bruce
I've found that a lot of exonumia, and coins for that matter, that come from Hawaii are very well done and easy on the eyes. I even have some...
Yes, I would think the gold restrikes, possibly the silver as well, are quite scarce. Given the high medal value, it seems likely. At $6,000 or...
T That's a beautiful coin brg! Just out of curiosity, have you seen any originals, and if so, are they rare? Bruce
I have the ash tray too Circus. Don't recall if there's advertising on it or not. Bruce
A bargain, Bill...then and now. Congrats. Bruce
You have to love that one, Bill. Where did you come across it? Bruce
