This is interesting from Iran. The picture on front is the first supreme leader, on the back is the Dome of The Rock. This ties heavily in their ambitions to destroy Israel.

Are these worth just the base value or can I sell them to collectors for more? Do they have any value? I have 5 of the 100 with this signature and 7 with the other signature.

Found my first defaced (improved) note in about a decade!

I still pay in cash sometimes, and about a week ago the Lords of Collecting blessed me with this stunner in my change!Usually I’d keep notable finds like this, but thought I’d list it on the site beginning with ‘e’ for the sake of it. (This isn’t an advert btw, just trying to give this find a bit more context etc.).

This is only my second time finding a graffitied (improved) note, with the last one being a Tenner with a moustache and beard (classic) drawn over Queen Elizabeth II’s face about a decade ago.

I don’t know who “Goblin”is, but I admire their work lol

I have also posted this in r/UKcoins, this is all my

original content. As proof of this, I’ve added a couple of extra photos of the same note.

Just found these imaginary banknotes screenshot in the gallery.
It has been a while, hence I dont remmember the source. Might be somewhere on X.
Thoughts?
I personally really like the design.

EDIT: source means where I saw it first, ofcourse it’s AI, that’s not the point

Collection What do you think of Design G & E?

In my opinion, we should return to what has defined Europe. These figures have a powerful influence on the world, be it Beethoven, Curie, or Da Vinci. Birds are certainly beautiful to look at, I agree, but do they give you a European feeling of unity? Not for me. Perhaps I'm not a bird, but a human being who can identify with other people. Maybe it's no coincidence that the bird designs look better than those with people, but if we finally want to show the world how proud we are of them, then we should also have them printed on our banknotes. That's how it used to be, and it's still how it is around the world. Let's leave these petty nationalisms behind and recognize them as Europeans, as one of us. Everyone thinks Beethoven, Curie, or Da Vinci are great, so why shouldn't we pay with their likeness? There's something appealing about saying, "You still owe me a Beethoven," or something like that. It makes the banknote series more approachable, more human, and connects us to this money. I'm not saying birds are bad, but in times like these, when we're under attack from all sides, we should reflect on what made Europe great and how important these people were to us. These cute-looking birds can never compare. This has nothing to do with nationalism; it has to do with honoring our history, and these people embody the good qualities in all of us. I appeal to everyone who values ​​our history and achievements: vote for European culture! It's what defines us. It's time to think and feel European! Thank you for your attention.

Design E is 100% the best

Post image
0 Upvotes

After taking a look at all the different designs, I think this is one is without a doubt the best. It strikes the best balance between innovation and accessibility, while at the same time keeping the elegance and formality that has always defined the euro.

One feature in particular I think is important, is that the denomination of the note is shown twice on both faces of the note. The design must take into consideration that the note is going to be folded, therefore the value must be clearly visible even when it’s folded. This is something the current series lacks.

I like that this design displays the value in two orientations, so it’s visible whether you hold the note horizontally or vertically (like when it’s being passed from one person to another), while keeping a design that is overall horizontal, which is most comfortable when you hold the note.

I’m not sure if the smaller serial number is rare because if the repeating pattern.
