Antilhas Holandesas - 1 Gulden 1970 - Pick 20
The guilder (Dutch: gulden) is the currency of the Netherlands Antilles. It is subdivided into 100 cents (Dutch plural form: centen).
In 1892, the Curaçaosche Bank introduced notes in denominations of 25 and 50 cents, 1 and 2½ guilders. This was the only issue of the cent denominations. Notes for 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 250 and 500 guilders followed in 1900. The 1 and 2½ guilder notes were suspended after 1920 but reintroduced by the government in 1942 as muntbiljet.
From 1954, the name "Nederlandse Antillen" appeared on the reverse of the notes of the Curaçaosche Bank and, from 1955, the muntbiljet (2½ guilders only) was issued in the name of the Nederlandse Antillen. In 1962, the bank's name was changed to the Bank van de Nederlandse Antillen. In 1970, a final issue of muntbiljet was made in denominations of both 1 and 2½ guilders. The 500 guilder note was not issued after 1962.

Ghana - 2000 Cedis 2003 - Pick 33
Ghana - 2000 Cedis 2003 - Pick 33
The cedi is the unit of currency of Ghana. One cedi is divided into one hundred pesewas. The actual cedi was introduced on July 3, 2007, and was equal to 10,000 old cedi when redenomination saw four zeros lopped off the value. It was the highest valued currency unit issued by sovereign countries in Africa in 2007.
The word "cedi" is derived from the Akan word for cowry shell. Cowry shells were once used in Ghana as a form of currency.
A number of Ghanaian coins have also been issued in Sika denominations. These are probably best considered as "medallic" coinage, and may have no legal tender status. The word sika means "money".

Transnistria - 1 Ruble 2007 - Pick new
The ruble is the official currency of Transnistria. It is divided into 100 kopecks. Since Transnistria is an internationally unrecognized country, its currency has no ISO 4217 code. However, unofficially some Transnistrian organisations such as Agroprombank and Gazprombank used the code PRB as the ISO 4217.
Notes are issued by the Transnistrian Republican Bank (Приднестровский Республиканский Банк) in denominations of 1 to 500 rubles.
