    Greetings:


    I just bought two 1962 10thousand lira notes and they are absolutely marvelous! :D


    Does anyone take a fancy to Italian currency ? Does anyone know how much these two notes are worth?

    Living here in Italy I want to "load up" at the next Numismatica market so any advice would be very kind.

    Are there any online world paper currency guides?

    Thanks a bunch to the forum everyone here is great!

    PS> I plan on buying alot for my son anyway but I am thinking about getting alot more as there are alot of Antique markets here etc thanks. :eek:

    Thanks for the reply It is much appeciated and hopefully I can get a good price guide ( will probably buy one online of world currency) as I plan on buying more Italian currency.

    Alot of people here hungry for the old italian notes after switch to the frowned upon Euro (by many anyway) so it is uplifting to know there are only so many on the market and demand and scarcity is sure to rise.

    Thanks a bunch again!!!!!!!!!

    the 1962 10,000 lire note catalogs at $10.00 in vf, and $35.00 in uncirculated. while you're there, keep an eye out for the 50,000 lire da vinci notes of the same series.

    they're getting pretty hard to find, and are fetching higher and higher prices in uncirculated!

    also, if you happen to venture down into sicily, i highly recommend a tour of the capucin monastery catacombs in palermo. :D
