This is an advice to all Bank Notes Collectors.. when I was young I got fascinated by the beautiful little bills of different colors.. I remember waiting excitedly for Christmas every year to get brand new, crisp and uncirculated paper money. It began with a Five Peso gift from my rich Ninong. It was fantastic for me, a hundred pieces of five centavo paper bills, I was able to keep two pieces for several years.. and then there was ten centavo bills, and twenty, then fifty (blue the first and green later}. Those were treasures for my young mind, but that was lost in the early seventies. If you have a collection keep it safe and secure, preferably in a strong box or a vault.

Hi al.plata,

Agree on that Al. I did not really collect them as you did. However the past few years saw my interest in those bills heightened . I have tried to collect them, and have, i guess generally gotten what i want.

Yes, especially those small bills ( 5, 10, 20 and 50 centavos) bring back a lot of pleasant childhood memories, Nostalgia I guess.

Yes, i have taken your advice to keep it safe and secure.

Cheers!
