EQUATORIAL AFRICAN STATES



This note is one I can tick off the "to get" list. This note is the same age as me and was issued in 1963 with a local man on the front and elephants on the reverse. it is a 100 franc note and with the code letter D means it is from Gabon.

the countries within the equatorial African states are

cameroon                        *
|central African Republic  B
Chad                              A
Congo                            C
equatorial Guinea
Gabon                            D


One thing I dont like is that the person I bought this note from, has sealed the note in a plastic wallet I will probably cut it out of the wallet (carefully)

NEARLY THE FULL COLLECTION FROM BELARUS





This set is making up the ones I had earlier (see here) I just have one more to get !! (the Lynx).
Above are the Rouble notes from Belaus ther first one is the 5 Rouble note with a picture of wolves on the front. The next  one is the 3 rouble note with beavers on the note and finally is the 1 rouble note with the hare motif. all are from 1992.

If I am being correct two of the notes above should be named as Roublei note as  this is the plural of rouble , but rouble sound more familiar..

More Belorussian notes here






Well look what i found in the collection! this lynx must have sneaked in when i was not looking!! so here is the 10 rouble note from 1992. All the notes in this little group have the reverse similar to the one above with colour  variation. so the group is complete.
