Nicaragua 10 Cordobas 2007

 

I bought this 1944 100 drachmai for $9.51.
I got it in hand and I honestly don't like it that much at all. Let's see if I can sell it for what I paid...

 

Don't know why it is sideways. Tried everything to get it upright.

 

Acquired from recent Lyn Christy auction. Quite inexpensive pickup.

OOOOPS! That should read "Lyn Knight".

Used to get those in circulation in the 70's all the time.

 

I know it's been... seven months since I posted in this thread, and it's really terrible timing since I leave town for a month next week... but the great scanning of our time has begun - my to-scan stack of notes literally fell over. I mean it fell. Over. So, I had to start scanning, and if I am scanning new notes, I better start posting the notes I already scanned and haven't posted, since it will take to the end of my natural life to finish. So here... we... go...

Today's note is a nice, busy Michigan obsolete $1 from the Bank of Macomb County. There are a ton of little engraved vignettes on this, a big red overprint, an overall nice design with a little something for everyone.

 

glad to see you again!

 

Welcome back. Look forward to seeing these again.

 

Nothing out of this world but got these Star notes this week...

 

Today's new pickup is this sharp Big Chief with the much tougher Lyons - Treat signature combination in solid VF. Not as rare as the Napier - Thompson sig but the next rarest to it, I like to collect this sig combo when I can. It doesn't carry a huge premium at this point compared to others, but it is definitely much less common. And what else is there to say, it's the Big Chief...

 

Ooh that's nice.
