New additions week 40 - 2014
Last weekend the bi-annual Papermoney Fair Maastricht was held in Valkenburg a/d Geul. As always the halls were packed with dealers, collectors and of course loads of banknotes. I managed to acquire some nice new notes and also to expand the number of countries I have notes from. Unfortunately I was also witness to an arrest when I saw a guy being taken away in handcuffs for trying to steal from a dealer. I later heard from other dealers that this was not the first theft that weekend.
But back to our hobby now. I bought 7 new banknotes including 5 from new countries. The list:
- Djibouti, 1,000 francs - P37d
- Faeroe Islands, 50 krónur - P24a
- Fiji, 5 dollar - P115
- France, 100 francs - P94
- French West Africa, 10 francs - P37
- Malta, 1 Lira - P31a
- St. Helena, 1 Pound - P9a
