New additions week 50 - 2012

A lot of new additions this week after my visit to the IBNS Netherlands fair in Hilversum last Sunday! It was a great fair. Much smaller than the big fair in Maastricht but I was a lot happier when I left. A total of 18 new banknotes and 12 new countries added to my collection!

France: 5 Francs (P115a)
Eritrea: 1 Nakfa (P1)
Equatorial Guinea: 500 Francos (P20)
Botswana: 10 Pula (P30a)
Arctic Territories: 20 Polar Dollars
Angola: 100 Kwanzas (P126)
South Sudan: 1 Pound (P5)
United States of America: 2 Dollar (P461)
Suriname: 25 Gulden (P138a)
Mexico: 10 Pesos (PS535b)
Malawi: 10 Kwacha (P51a)
Yugoslavia: 5000 Dinara (P93a)
Jersey: 1 Pound (P32)

The last note from Laos is one of my favorite notes ever. I think the design and colors are stunning. This has been on my wish list for a long time and I could finally get it for a good price this weekend.
