These belonged to my grandfather, and I have no idea what they are. Can someone ID and give a general value of these? Thank you in advance. I scanned them, both sides.
Welcome aboard,revaxx.You have got there a 500 Roubles from Czarist Russia,a 2 Francs from Algeria,a 1 Lira from Italy,& a 1 Centavo of the Japanese Occupation of the Philippines. They are very common notes. Aidan.
Top left, French Algeria 2 francs. Center left, 1 Lira World War II Allied Military Payment Currency, issued to Allied troops in Italy. Bottom left, 1 centavo Japanese World War II Phillipine occupation currency. Right, 500 Rubles(?), probably Czarist Russian, early 20th Century, definitely from a country using the Cyrillic alphabet. For values you need to locate a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Paper Money ("Pick"). Edited - guess I had better learn to type faster.
Hontonai,the Allied Miltary Currency banknotes were also used by the civilian population as well.The same thing applied in Austria,France,Germany,& Japan as well. Aidan.
