I also have some banana money.. got it from my mom.. Wonder what's the value for the banana money..

Well you can always ask for the local stamps and coins collectors and sees if they interested in collecting yours.
For my case, I have found some collectors overseas that are interested in collection my stocks...

There is a book in local bookstores about local notes along with their resale value. Look for it under the hobby section.

If you want to visit a shop, there's one in AmcorpMall that specializes in old money, they buy and sell I think.

cOol Dude...thanks for the info

julchin if you manage to grab hold of the book... be sure to share it here... might need to know the price as well... maybe we can search the book together and see who got it 1st
...

I have a older book dated 1995/96 pricing .. later I bring it back and see

You go Amcorp and search ler. Im all the way in Johor....

got 2 100 year old India coins, know how much its worth?

Careful of the Amcorp shop.. Even though it is legitimate shop that sells and buy old currencies - coins, paper or otherwise.. they usually will undercut you ard 75% of the original value .. When they sell to avid collectors.. they sell like 200% of the original values (not the value they bought it from you)..

Once I tried to go there to check how much those 1960's 50 cent coins that has the silver lining on the center worth.. They told me it is worthless but I didnt believe them. Then I got my friend to go there and ask the shop owner about purchasing those coins.. They told him that each coins is worth RM300 to 500 depending conditions of the coins.

There are a lot of these old currencies shops
just ask around before you trying to sell it out
so far I know Sungai Wang near the Popular bookshop (forgot which floor) got one
then Pertama Complex also got one

If you want to know the estimate value of your notes
it's better to get a currencies catalogue
I think you can buy it at those old currencies shops or Bank Negara

well, just to heat up the thread a bit.. hahah here is a wrongly printed note RM 100... agong head

If u wish to know value of those old currency $$ value, it got a book that note down all old currently in sought east asia. Think the book sould be arround RM40-100, last edition I saw was b4 year 2000

Sorry in all, I half stop this hobby for some long time. maybe I try ask for my old teacher, he teach me this b4.

HKNP: Wao, u got wrong printed note, great on u!!! Your RM100 is 2nd signature edition, I got crazy collect in 1st edition in all, now left rm500 & RM1000, too costly for me...

yup...
hey the 1st edition 1.. i currently have rm1, rm 5 , rm10 , rm20, rm 50 and rm100... rm1000 and rm500 is too costly .. hahah i doubt any 1 will keep them hehehhehe

wao, same as mine in 1st edition!!!! SUre wana keep them!

1st edition, the signature damn nice, too complex!!

2nd Edition, the signature still ok, but cant compare with 1st! RM20 only last appear on this collection!

3rd Edition, wao lau yee, too simple, not so nice.... (all is my personal coment)


Hey, dont know u got those b4 1st edition of collection of not? that 1 damn hard to find now, maybe $1 still ok bit in find...
I got some lot of $1,
1x$10(tiger invisible head) &
x100 of $5(too bad loss some in between, or else is damn nice of x100 collection)



Previos few post got ppl show 1, if I no mistaken, that is Queen Ezlizaber's father face, $$ b4 our merdeka... I also forgot I got or not...
For the Banana $$, it can say no much value at all, only value if it got the serial number.
those non-serial number is when WW2, the soldier mass print out for some temp use, but when ww2 end, those non-serial $$ also become useless...



Ohya, forgot to say, nice to meet u & other, got time & got a good DC, I show some my old currency hobby collection...
My another old collection hobby is Stamp, but that 1 almost quit early than old currency, because stamp is more hard in take care.

PS: If u wish to make this as value hobby collector, PLS dont use your hand go touch thsoe paper(old currecy & stamp) always, it maybe spoilt it.
If can, use small clamp to catch it, & hold them in a special size platic bags. That y I stop stamp collection, so hard to take care them....

I have stamps collection too..... 6 album of it.... 1st day cover also got.. stop for so long liao... sigh...

I've been searching for the elusive 1983 50 cents coin for 2 years now and I finally found it as a change from a parking meter payout in a shopping mall in PJ!!

The last i saw in lelong.com a 1983 50 cents is worth around RM25 and the 1985 is around RM20...supposedly they are limited runs dats why...

wonder how much you guys value it....uh nonsensical threads are also allowed!!!

flame on ppl!!!

is that coins the one that has black line on its edge instead of 'bank negara malaysia'? i saw a few before too.

well nope..it still has the bnm words on the side just that those 2 years has limited runs on the coins and like i said took me 2 years just to find the 83 coin!!

how much is it worth?.... prolly about 50 cents
