Mozambique 20 centavos 1933 PR29 AUnc

In the year 2000, Surinam issued what is arguably one of the prettiest series of banknotes. The theme celebrated the vivid flora and fauna found in this South American country. The fronts are dominated by colourful native birds including the Rednecked Woodpecker and the Redbilled Toucan while the backs feature plants and flowers set against a view of government buildings. Included in our trio are the 5,10 and 25 gulden (P146-8) Crisp Uncirculated.

During the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, there were two different types of Shillings issued every year. One had a reverse with an English design and one had a reverse with a Scottish design. The Scottish designs are always the more difficult ones to find because they made less of them than the English reverse. This coin is now 60 years old and Uncirculated examples are very difficult to find. The Scottish reverse has a lion standing and is rather majestic. The coins are in Uncirculated condition and more difficult to find than the catalogue indicates.

The Deutsch Mark was the official currency of the Federal Republic of Germany from its launch in 1948 until 1990, and from reunification with East Germany in 1990 until the introduction of the euro in 2002. It replaced the Allied Military currencies that circulated in each of the country’s Occupation Zones after World War 2. We can now offer this set of 6 circulated coins, which includes the 1, 2, 5, 10 and 50 Pfennig, as well as the 1 Deutsch Mark coin.
