 Posted: Tue May 08, 2007 12:23 am Post subject: My Antarctica Solid Number Banknote Collection |
 |
|
This Antarctica solid number G6666 is my only piece of collection under the Antarctica section of my world solid number 555555 banknotes collection. I am still looking for a 5555 and 8888 to present my collection. If anyone know who has these two pieces, I can buy or exchange note with him/her.

Derrick is a collector of banknotes with solid serial numbers.Any banknote with '666' in the serial number is very popular as '666' is the number associated with the Devil.Mind you,'666' is also one of the 2 lucky numbers of the Pope of Rome,because the Pope of Rome is the Antichrist.The other one is '13'.

NumisMatty - The word "solid number" is a term used in numismatic for banknote serial numbers containing the straight same number such as 222222, 333333 etc. Different countries may use different term. USA and most part of the world used the term "solid number". The Canadian uses single-digit or one-digit radar which is also referred to "solid numbers". As solid number banknotes collecting is not very popular with Europeans and many Western countries but they are popular with Asian collectors especially Chinese. Chinese as a race are very sensitive towards numbers. I am not the typical Chinese. In fact, I collect 555555 which does not have much liking by Asian Chinese collectors. My collecton is purely a hobby. Solid number collecting is a specialised banknote collecting. It is also one of the few expensive specialized collecting. USA solid numbers banknotes are the most expensive. 
Aidan - Thanks for information. '666' does not have much effect on Asian Chinese collector. Only the 4 are not like by the Asian Chinese collectors.

In the ancient times, coins and banknotes collecting hobby is suited for the Kings and Queen. Later, it is a hobby for the rich and famous. Today, anyone can enjoy this hobby. You don't have to be very rich to collect rare and expensive coins and banknotes for your hobby. In fact, your collection can be comparable or maybe better than the richest collector in your country.
There are many people who are not rich but they have suceeded in acquiring many rare and valuable collection. How did they do it ?
You can trade and invest in your hobby. Many people are trading them and have created successful coins and banknotes businesses. Coins and banknotes can also be used as an instrument for investment.
With trading and investment, you will be able to afford the best and the rarest coins and banknotes money can buy.
Coming back to the earlier statement., " You don't have to be rich to keep the rare and expensive coins and banknotes". You just need to be knowledgeable and resourceful and apply the principles of trading and investment.

| I just bought a set of 3 2007 Antartica banknotes (1,2&3 Dollars), all 3 have a same number but difference prefix. And understand Antartica also issued specimen notes with 0000. |
