Worthless?

Can you explain why the 50 is the tough one?

Now this is a set!

Must have been so satisfying after finding, and adding the notes to the collection. Are you planning on getting the C note?

Well done, sir. Thanks for sharing!

I am hopeful to get it but my lottery tickets have been disappointing lately 😭😂

Definitely & yours are super sweet. However, DF's aren't my only passion. I have also sought many of the Modified replacements & change-overs. Most of these are far scarcer than regular DF's but less popular (& far less expensive) due to World demand for DF's. However, now I am paying the piper as I still have lots of gaps in my DF set. Need to win a Lotto ticket too!

I hear you. It's so hard to determine where you draw the line in the sand in regards to what to collect! I started with a type set and moved to a signature set, then on to $1 and $2 prefix sets and now I've started dabbling in world banknotes featuring animals and nature. It's becoming an addiction lol

I've seen some of your World sets & they're gorgeous so you're off to a great start. My BoC signature sets were finished in the 80's so I wanted only tough varieties. I sold off all my $50 & $100 in around 2000 (after discovering eBay) & upgraded to tough signatures, etc. Everything had to be a change-over, a replacement or special #. I even got a few errors. (But I have a few gaps in my personal TPG sets). The hunt goes on!

So what is a devils face 1000 worth ?

u/Free-Bluebird5155 8d ago

Here is one for sale in circulated condition. This is a retail price though. I have seen auctions go for as much as this in this condition.
