I have pulled a few defaced banknotes from circulation as they might have some historical value in the future. It would be interesting to see what else is out there.

Anyway here's one of my older, defaced notes!
1942 French Algeria 5 Francs
Defaced by American military personnel during WWII, as evidenced by the writing and address:
"Bone N. Africa
Sl Sgt Ciro <unreadable> Oct 4, 1943
1524- 74th St
Brooklyn
N.Y."
Amazing to think how this note can be tied to a human being who lived and breathed decades ago.

I had this note at some point and asked here if it was some shady sign because criminal organisations do this some times but I was told it was most likely a casino or money exchanger.

Quote: "Idolenz"When I left China with USA Hundreds I noticed many of them had similar stamps on them. I don’t have any more of them. Would be interesting if the stamps could be documented and provide a locale for where the money had been.

Quote: "Oklahoman"Bank notes like your Algerian note fall in the heading of "short snorters" military personnel of all ranks would sign these for each other. Singles or taped together. I have them from China...Viet Nam...Laos...Europe...and I have seen them signed by Princes, Generals, government officials...i also save the notes where kids write their name and address and ask for penpals...Wow, thanks for the info! I knew soldiers would usually bring home and/or exchange mementos or souvenirs of sorts, but this is the first I've heard of the practice being as widespread as it seems to be.
I've also this Egyptian note from 1940:
In the bottom margin it says (upside down) "2/- N.Z. 100 10£"
I'm imagining someone of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force who served in North Africa during WWII making that quick notation.

Quote: "ngdawa"Never heard the phrase before but I guess I have some, if this is what you mean:These would be considered provisional notes. They were authorized by the new governments that they served. I do not have these in my collection but would love to add them some day. They look great.

Canada One Dollar - signature and rubber stamped in green
I received some information that suggested this note may have been signed by Kenneth Elmer (born 24 April 1948) - a Canadian middle-distance runner. He competed in the men's 1500 metres at the 1972 Summer Olympics.

Quote: "blue-m"I cringe thinking about the day that a certain nameless person will demand that his properties in palm beach and nyc be included on the backs of banknotes. Talk about defacing currency.But... what if that person has "the best properties, tremendous properties, so many properties"?
SAD!

Thank you for coming to the table and agreeing to meet with me halfway here, Oklahoman; it's a quality I really do appreciate, but seems to be sorely lacking in some of Numista's more readily disagreeable denizens.
Your self-limiting makes you so much easier to talk with than some. I think we can both agree also that regardless of whether the person behind the screen approves of X or not, as long as some self-control is exercised, we can live in blissful ignorance of whatever political opinions the other folks we share Numista with may happen to have.
Your points definitely aren't invalid; so I'm sure in the future (yourself being a Year 4 teacher) you can help calm tensions if an offending party with a chip on his shoulder next attempts to rattle his sabre at perceived transgressions by rule-abiding, decent forum-goers. I look forward to sharing that kind of Numista with more people like you instead, and I eagerly reciprocate your kind words in turn.

Reviving the thread;
A stamp on a Russian Empire 100 Roubles note from 1910; the stamp itself says "Trésorerie Génerale (du) Puy-de-Dôme", indicating a place in southern-central France.
