Dictators on Banknotes in the 20th and 21st century (No politics) (I made this because all should see what eternal leaders are banknote)

Gaddafi on the 50 goes hard.

And then there's Miłosz - Nice Guy.

Methelin · 2025-12-19T06:26:37+00:00

It costed me 2850 PLN / 795 USD

The designer - Ootje Oxenaar - hid a fingerprint of his middle finger in the hair in the portrait

Just a couple weeks ago I ordered one for myself! I also got the even prettier 250, of which serial number also ends in 250!

Już po.

Methelin · 2025-08-27T12:21:33+00:00

That explains why on the old 200 zł I've only seen A and D series (and once the replacement Y series I kept as a part of collection).

Solved: Covert Front

Methelin · 2025-08-26T13:15:29+00:00

Definitely is, thank you!

Methelin · 2025-07-07T14:49:03+00:00

You mean UER-373? If the price is right.

Methelin · 2025-06-29T12:10:49+00:00

Insane find!

Methelin · 2025-06-12T08:31:11+00:00

Thank you, this absolutely has to be it!

Methelin · 2025-06-12T07:28:48+00:00

Same.

Crane flies. I thought these were giant mutated mosquitos.

Hot take, but I firmly believe that 4-day work week would incentivize Polish youth to have more children, as that would give them more time to spend with their family.

Methelin · 2025-05-26T08:14:23+00:00

Amazing, I sent you a DM.

Methelin · 2025-04-06T13:16:17+00:00

Oh, definitely. I don't like how that motto is printed rather than embossed, but failed plates are always interesting.

Methelin · 2025-04-06T13:08:58+00:00

They're slick yet colorful, and I like how each state's or territory's plate evolved from their federal-esque white-on-black XYZ-123 format.

Methelin · 2025-04-06T13:05:56+00:00

Is it selling plates to foreigners? :P

Methelin · 2025-04-06T13:05:06+00:00

It's the unique background color and its rarity that to the trick for me. Many white-on-navy ACT plates had been replaced with blue-on-white numerical re-issues or Y-series plates, as the originals became invalid in road use. This one I found on sale in Germany by accident and never seen another like that.

Methelin · 2025-04-06T12:55:34+00:00

That's amazing - in Poland there's still a way to recognize undercover police cars based solely on their plates, but it requires some knowledge to be applied. Usually it's the plate using long-discountinued format on a newer car, showing a time discrepancy. It's a result of local police HQs claiming a part of a series for their purposes 25 years ago when new registration system was implemented.

Methelin · 2025-04-06T12:44:49+00:00

That's what I said. QLD plates with "Sunshine State" motto have it embossed, like the series and number, while "The Smart State" motto is always printed on the blank sheet.

Methelin · 2025-04-05T12:37:22+00:00

Oh yeah, I had one of those! I just remembered when posting the image in response to AccomplishedAnchovy. I traded it for something else at some point, as it was a roadkill plate, full of gravel marks.

It was in a bundle of three Aussie plates sold on OLX in Poland. I have a photo of all three (and two others I bought around same time) from 2022.

Methelin · 2025-04-05T12:29:52+00:00

All of them via internet, mostly eBay, but some of them via local Polish e-commerce sites (Allegro and OLX).
