I have this bank note with a different lettering instead of "50 INSTITUT D’ÉMISSION DE L'AFRIQUE OCCIDENTALE FRANÇAISE ET DU TOGO 50 there is written: 50 Banque Centrale des Etats de Afrique de L´Ouest´50

I am thankful for advises.

Pictures please.

Just call me Bram

No new swaps for the moment, still too many half-ongoing swaps to clean up!

It's P#1 - without code letters (not in the catalog).

Thank you Idolenz and Bram, it is exactly the same banknote, also same signatures, only mine is in a bad condition.

Is it worth to add it to the catalog ?

For sure. Any missing type should be added, even with pictures of a note in lesser condition.

 

Thanks!

Thank you very much for your help and informations. I have posted this banknote now N#478962

As i am a new member of numista and not used to post, I apologise for any missing or incorrect information and hope you will be able to help  to correct those mistakes and to add more informations. 

P.S. i found one banknote in a better condition and posted this and not the one in bad condition.

Thanks for taking the trouble to make a new page. The referee might ask if there is necessary info missing.

It is however important that we only use pictures from sources that have given permission. So if the picture you found is not from a source listed (Add an authorized source of images – Numista) , please use your own picture. In the future someone owning a better example might replace it, but for now your banknote will be on that page 🥰

Tip(s):

  • Please remove the series 'H.76', that's not what that field is used for
  • in the title you might want to add: ‘(without country code letters)’, the similar notes are separated in the Krause catalog by the issuing country French West African States vs. West African States but in Numista it seems they are in the same so a title comment is nice for fast differentiation
  • the comment with the similar note is usually handled by adding the similar objects page in the ‘see also’ section, in this case N#220450
