Hi All,

I found some collection of paper money passing down from my grandfather.
Some money and coins are really old and full with historical value.
I was wondering, where can I verify the value of these money.



Muzeum? Money Collectors?
Any link and contacts that I could have to check?

Please help.

Regards,
HKNP

lelong? IIRC i saw some sellers trying to sell some of those old notes
what about the value of rm50 with the serial number ending with 8888?

I was talking about paper money that was issue at January 1940, Rm100 notes without numbers, decolored Rm50 (color not same with normal notes).... and so many more...

hEY...

I collect paper money too...BUt mostly foreign countries. I have only 1 old RM1 note and 1 "Pokok Pisang" note from the Jap occupation. I dont know how much its worth, but would like to find out too......

it depends. If your "pokok pisang" money is normal 1...it only worth a little... but if your money is with those Japanese surrendering notice printed in red near the pokok pisang 1... then it might worth more...

I have a few... :hehe"

I see...Then I think mines the normal one....It doesn't have any red notice........

i think those cannot be value lor...
not interest one will say no value,
but interest collector will say is priceless......

just my opinion....

agreed ... anyone collecting paper money here... that can provide a way to verify the value of these artifacts??

Quite true also....

Everything that does not interest a person might crap to him but gold to others...1 mans poison is another man bread...(err I think I got that right)

Imagine those with RM20/RM500/RM1000 notes....salute to them...I missed collecting the RM20 note....Too young then and didn't realize the significance....

On another note, when I was in hostel in college, some ppl broke into my room and took my $Aus and Banana tree money....

Haha banana money.... My mother used to told me that when the Japs surrenders, those British throws the money from a plane in boxes and she used to pick them up to burn in the stove to help start fires...
hahhaha

Imagine If I have a box of it now...mauahahaha

Then you can start selling them to avid colletors......

That is the purpose of this thread... I need to know the value of the collections before I get to sell them to avid collectors...

Any one can help.... any place in KL that have this kind of service?

Why dont try bank negara's Money Museum
My Webpage
http://moneymuseum.bnm.gov.my/index.php?ch=7&pg=31

Well, I try to contact Muzeum Negara last time... Instead of selling out, they ask me to donate to the Muzeum....

How ironic of them...

Of course lar dude...they wanna try and cheat you out of it.....If you have a lot donate 1 -2 notes out of good grace ler....But try to keep or sell the others....
