<p>[QUOTE="ephyfe, post: 1613590, member: 37517"]Yes, it's a nice representation of the French Indochina note done in 54. The interesting thing about the 2nd note (your bottom note) that you probably already know (although others may not know) is that they supposedly stop making the notes because they picture real women and I guess that wasn't acceptable. I don't know if that's true but I've only seen the AA and DD (replacement) prefixes with this banknote, and of course the specimen notes. There's an AB prefix that was made but supposedly never issued. There's only one guy who I've seen sell these notes on ebay - mauriziolaos. He's from Laos. Who knows if the bank will release the AB notes in the future. Right now they go for a bit of a premium. According to mauriziolaos "<font size="2">o<b><font face="Comic Sans MS">nly 298,000 pieces of this banknote had been issued and those have AA or the replacement DD serial." If true that's a pretty low number for paper currency.</font></b></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
