<p>[QUOTE=&quot;see323, post: 214852, member: 8291&quot;]You are right. Super solids can be expanded into a few categories.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the earlier notes, when most of Thomas De La Rue or Waterlow and Sons uses the fractional prefixes such A/1, A/55 etc, it is determine by the matching prefix number. Example A/55 555555 and D/55 555555 They are also know as super solids as well. </p><p><br /></p><p>Many countries today have switch to prefix ?AA.?AA such as Singapore, India and Thailand. It is still term as super solid as long as it matches the prefix number as in 5AA 555555. As for 5EE 555555, it is a super solid with a matching letter. It is an additional weightage into the numbering. In addition, if the note denomination is a $5 or 5 pound or $50 or $500, there is still a further increase in value of the note.&nbsp; Surpringly, as in the case of 8AA 888888, collectors will choose prefix AA instead of 8HH 888888. Historically, AA represent the first prefix in any numbering of serial number. They are popular among collectors. I should say that collectors have a weakness for an AA prefix. </p><p><br /></p><p>An example of another group of super solid number without prefix numbering is this piece in my Japanese solid collection. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.notepassion.com/images/Jap%201000Yen%20E555555E%20-%20front%20-%20800.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
