<p>[QUOTE="misiek87, post: 1002855, member: 27079"]Hey guys, I am leaving in the morning to purchase an album of paper currency and one of the pictures I received shows two banknotes from Portugal.

What concerns me is that if you look in the picture, above where it says price, it says "copies". </p><p><br /></p><p>Looking at the 4 other pictures I got, that does not appear on any of sleeves and he has some nice notes, older than these two and more valuable like a 1925 Brasil 5 millions reis (sp?). Either way, is this a real copy? Shouldn't it say "copy" on the banknote itself? What about the prices? Who would actually pay or value these banknotes at that much if they were really copies? I contacted the seller right now, so I will await his response but he doesnt know anything about collecting. I really don't want to believe these are copies but the fact that its written on the label worries me. Is there a way to spot a reproduction of a note?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks alot to those who chime in</p><p><br /></p><p>.[ATTACH]97038.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
