Haiti 1986 2 Gourdes Tyvek Propaganda Overprint
***This unusual banknote must be one of the most popular banknotes ever printed on Tyvek among collectors.
This banknote carries an overprint to celebrate the fleeing of Baby Doc from the Haitian's power throne where he was, like his old man, supposed to be President For Life.
The suspected protagonists behind this Overprint must have been the Haitian exiles in Miami.
It has been mentioned & quoted many, many times that ONLY 250 pieces of this 2 Gourdes note exist. Is this accurate? If it is indeed true, then, this banknote must rank as the fewest ever issued in the world and would, thus, cost a bomb in years to come!
Somehow, this might be true as one has not seen this note being auctioned on eBay or elsewhere for a long, long time now.

Malaysia 2010 $1 Serial NOs 1111111
***The months of waiting and trying to get hold of the RM1 super-solid banknote bearing the Serial NOs of AAA1111111 must have been a trying time to some collectors.
Well, no one will ever going to get the above banknote in their collection.
I suppose the next best affordable note would be ABA1111111.

Sarawak 1929 $25
***A rare $25 banknote dated 1929 from the now defunct nation of Sarawak.
An excellent piece of banknote in very crisp and firm paper.
Can one actually purchase this banknote if one were to strictly adhere to the prices quoted in the various local money catalogues or one would have to wait until kingdom come if one does so?!
