That settles it! I definately want to start putting together a world banknote collection for a young nephew. Have decided that for a youngster, it will be much easier to encourage an interest in numismatics with notes rather than coins!

[Nighthawk]

I can get the lad started with a bunch of notes real cheap!  Maybe you and I can trade something and get the youngster started on a banknote collection.

Japan



Higuchi Ichiyo(1872-1896) was the pen name of Higuchi Natsu, she assumed a pen name so that she could continue to write in a man's world and have her works published. Her works were critically acclaimed, and memorable 110 years after her untimely demise in 1896. Her works are considered the first significant work by a female in Japanese literature, and in 2004 she was finally recognised with the issue of this 5,000 Yen note. This note has many security features. The depiction of Higuchi Ichiyo represents only the third time in Japanese history that a woman has been depicted on a banknote, the first was in 1881 more recently a 2,000 Yen note was issued with Murasaki Shikibu in 2000.

Ivory Coast



This lovely note from Ivory Coast is actually an issue of the West African States Currency, CFA for short, but it is coded for Ivory Coast. This note has a lady with cowrie shell beads in her hair, curious because cowrie shells served as a form of money in many cultures long ago. The reverse of this colourful note has a market scene. This note is printed by Banque de France.
