Original –
Sigismund III Vasa as ruler of the
Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth depicted on a pair of gold 10
ducat coins: one bearing the coat of arms (reverse) of the Royal City of
Gdańsk (1614) and the other a variation of the coat of arms of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth (1616), struck in the Lithuanian Treasury.
High quality image, high EV. Backed with felt in an early conservation attempt, this 1713 note is from the first year Denmark began issuing paper currency.
High quality, high EV. After losing a nearly exclusive contract to engrave and print for the U.S. Treasury (c. 1880), the ABNCo pursued foreign contracts. They have provided security paper and/or bank notes to 115 foreign countries.
High quality, high EV (presented as a pair). New Caledonian emergency stamp money was issued (1914–23) in lower denominations (e.g., 25 and 50 Centimes, 1 and 2 Francs) indicating a need for non-metallic change (see
Fractional currency) and likely reflecting a war-time specie shortage.
Original – A two-image set representing the two different types of
emergency postage money issued in New Caledonia (postage stamp on card and encased postage stamp)
