A Half Shilling note from Oceania under the Japanese Occupation period with the Block Letters of OA as catalogued by Kraus as P.1B & also catalogued by Schwan Boling as SB2212A but unfortunately, this is a low grade note.
Wishing for a long time to upgrade to a PMG 66 one as grapevine has it that someone Down Under has it. So, if you have it, raise your hand & say what price that you want! Everyone has a price, as such, don't say it's NFS!
Also looking for the Block Letter of OB got this Half Shilling issue and wouldn't mind starting from a lower grade one as a start.
2 Running pieces of the 500 Malaysian Ringgit note catalogued as P.33A, issued in the mid & towards the late 90s, but unfortunately, this is just an ordinary issue as the quantity issued was rather huge & even its serial numbers is kind of huge, not with many zeroes which signify the low quantity printed.
As this 500 deno has long been demonetised, some folks are getting sentimental to this piece of numismatic paper & for the younger folks who were not even born then, these are something they do not know even existed.
This is not a rare issue.
However, me too have got into the world of sentimentalism & as such, I would like to buy a few pieces of this issue so that my grandkids would not only know such a big deno existed but also know how it actually looks like.
Do contact me if you have this 500 Ringgit note with you & if you wish to sell it. Please don't exchange them at your local money changer!
3 pieces of the 5 Ringgit Polymer note with the First Prefix of BL & the rather low numbers of BL 0000222,333 & 777, duly authenticated & graded by PMG, but still Unlisted as per Pick. Wonder what will be the last prefix as the Governor who signed on these 3 pieces is now no longer the Governor? Also, wonder if these 3 pieces will be valuable or otherwise? Maybe, some Malaysian numismatics experts out there could shed a little bit of their expert light on this.

An unusual running pair of the Malaya JIM banana note $1 series with Serial Numbers & prefix of MA & which have been graded by PMG as Choice UNC & AUNC respectively.
A rather high grade unusual in running numbers & apparently, at PMG 64, it's the highest grade as per the PMG's Pop Report as only 3 pieces listed at 64 so far.
And despite the passage of time, these JIM notes still look fresh & in their original condition, a rather unusual thing as esp. most of this P.M5a issue are found in VG condition & at best, in VF 35 condition.
Will be willing to consider letgo-ing these if the price offered reflects their scarcity.

A one year hiatus in far flung Timbuktu mining salt is not what every ordinary mortal could do but lookee, it has been done but of course, it's no cause for extreme gloating, but there's no harm for some slight gloatable laughs.
A 50 Ringgit banknote with the rather gloatable Solid Numbers of 3 & the double prefix of JJ & this note has made itself way back all the way from the very buoyant numismatic scene in Timbuktu.
Is this a so-called Super Solid banknote that some 'experts' have labelled such notes as such? Is this a gloatable banknote worth having a slot in one's cramped album? Yours truly the evergreen neophyte would be glad for some learned enlightenment from the learned gentle folks out there!
But what is sure gloatable is that it has been properly & professionally graded as a 68 out of a max score of 70 by none other than highly respected American numismatics experts, PCGS Currency.
How many 11th Series Malaysian 50 Ringgit Solid Numbers banknotes have been graded as 68, how many??? 68 is already almost perfect 10, yes, a Bo Dereklike perfect 10 & as such, there is cause for a numismatic gloat if one so desires to gloat...
An obsolete but rather important piece of Malaysian numismatic paper carrying only a lowly fair value of One Dollar issued way, way back in 1940, but still having its rather unique eye-appeal of striking conifer-green hue dominating its surface in entirety.
To those who are experts in the numismatic papers issued by the nation of Sarawak just prior to World War 2, they would know that 1940 is a key-date, esp. to the one bearing a face value of $1.
But of course, according to many, many serious collectors, who these days call themselves the so-called numismatists, the key date to this $1 issue is actually the one issued in 1935. Maybe, they could be true as after all what they might lack in knowledge, they could make it up in numbers & who is one to say one party is right & the other one is wrong. Such a discussion should be left for another different time on another different day, perhaps.....
