British North Borneo: 50 Cents from 1938

by on May.08, 2011, under Recent Acquisitions

In my quest to add every country that ever issued paper money to my collection I have purchased a completely work out old banknote from British North Borneo (Malaya area of Asia). This particular note is from 1938, though British North Borneo has issued a few issues of this denomination. Unfortunately I had to cough up $51 for this banknote, but that is how it is with British North Borneo. Supply is low, demand is high. This one might even turn out to be a decent investment in the end, considering scarcity of such notes. Ugly, but valuable ;)

New Additions to RealBanknotes.com

by on Dec.08, 2009, under Website Updates

Well, its been a while but one of my school assignments borders the project at the website, so I thought I’d put my coding to work and add a few things to the site. Also, I have finally purchased the Standard Catalog of World Paper Money: General Issues 12th Edition. Now I have all the books for 2008, and all of my info is relatively up-to-date. That having been done, I have updated the list of countries on the site, and have began updating the countries that do not have any issues post 1960. Hopefully I can eliminate some of those ‘blank’ pages on the site.

Here’s the progress:

- I have updated the countries
- I have added notes for Andorra, Azores
- I have added notes for Bohemia & Moravia, British Guiana
- I have added notes for Zanzibar
- I have added notes for Tangier, Tannu Tuva, Tibet, Turks & Caicos Islands

I am still looking for help, if anyone is interested. You can always email me at: xproteusx@hotmail.com .
