Tom Chao http://tomchao.com Not really a banknote issue persay, but the Chatham Islands somewhere out in the backwaters of the Pacific saw fit to issue a speculative banknote issue. These were being peddled on fleaBay for a time. Another though real banknote issue was a 2000 Lei banknote from Romania commemorating same event, in addition I think it commemed an eclipse seen in Romania. Interesting note.

Don't whether that one would actually qualify as a "millennium note" but it is interesting indeed. (A polymer note, by the way.) As for that eclipse, it could be experienced elsewhere as well - my friend and I went to Wissembourg (Alsace, France) on that day to see it :-) Christian |

There's a Northern Bank 5 Pounds commemorative as well. And I wonder why Dave didn't mention the Clydesdale Bank 10 and 20 Pounds. I'm sure there are more. it is interesting indeed.

As for that eclipse, it could be experienced elsewhere as well - my friend and I went to Wissembourg (Alsace, France) on that day to see it :-) That was one of the most fascinating events I've ever witnessed! I remember getting up in the middle of the night on that day, and chasing after the first spot of blue sky west of Aachen, which I reached a bit north of Paris just 30 minutes before the eclipse started. By the way, when will the next eclipse be seen in Western Europe? Jan -- Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

Fiji issued a $2.00 (P-94) note and I believe a $2,000 note specifically
for the Millennium (I don't have my catalog with me at the moment to verify the $2,000 note). wrote: In year 2000 the following 7 countries issued notes to commemorate the new Millennium: China, Gibraltar, Guernsey, Hungary, North Ireland, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea.

This post got me thinking would it be possible to collect a 0, 1000AD and 2000AD 'commerative' set. My be interesting but I'd expect the older types to be coins... just a wondering thought... Oh, and I know why Dave didn't mention the Clydesdale Bank example I think the question was about which Countries, and Scotland's not a country is it...? Thanks Darren |

I'm looking to get the Clydesdale £10 and £20 millennium notes for my
Millennium note exhibit if the price is right. Don't need matching serial numbers. I believe Romania 2000 Lei commemorates the 1999 solar eclipse rather than the Millennium. Thanks for the reponses.

Tom Chao Sorry you missed my low priced examples of the Clydes £10 and £20 by about three weeks, they were bought by a buyer in England. Since the anglish, including our very ownest Darren, canna get enough o' the Scawtty notes. Billy, aka the Note.boy has a matching pair though Dave --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

(about the Aug-1999 eclipse) That was one of the most fascinating events I've ever witnessed! I remember getting up in the middle of the night on that day, and chasing after the first spot of blue sky west of Aachen, which I reached a bit north of Paris just 30 minutes before the eclipse started. About the same here. We first wanted to go to Stuttgart (from Düsseldorf) but then went to Strasbourg and stayed overnight there. Well, the decision to not go to Stuttgart turned out to be a good one (rain and clouds there), but the weather in Strasbourg was not great either. So we drove north and stopped somewhere south of Wissembourg where we could see the eclipse. Fascinating indeed ... By the way, when will the next eclipse be seen in Western Europe? The next total eclipse can be seen in Europe in March 2006. Not exactly in Western E., however, but only in places like Crete and (Asian) parts of Turkey. The next one to be seen in Germany will be in 2081 :-) Christian |
