banknotes from the african continent:

African banknotes such as the ones below are excellent additions to any World collection. Why should I collect notes from this continent? The answer is simple: many nations have undergone tumultuous revolutions.  This means that their currencies have often changed from one type to another (such as Pounds to Naira in the case of Nigeria).  Such changes, the shrugging off of colonial dependence, makes them desirable. You should also keep in mind that some African environments are terribly humid.  Humidity & workhorse handling means its tough to impossible to get some older series in hig grade. I have just added a super tough 50 Francs from Rwanda-Burundi featuring a lioness on the front. This nation's currency lasted only 2-3 years so to get a VF example for half BV is a treat for most collectors. 

Some older generation notes were shipped out in high grade, like the ones below, & these can be obtained at very affordable prices. The tiny island of St. Helena have small issues printed but as a Commonwealth currency featuring QEII, it is one of the most affordable in high grades. 

Take the St. Helena, the South African or Zambian links for the notes I have from these 3 countries.
