(Note: I've experienced some coding problems in this post & am trying to correct them, but some links are not displaying correctly)

We've all seen videos of collector's banknote albums on Youtube. A good link for a starter on this was started below with @desiboyee thread:
http://goccf.com/t/404541

However, I like to see videos that are a bit different & go one (or 2) step(s) further, such as "Half-asleep Chris" series of videos. This creative individual uses fun graphics (& excellent sound FX) to put a funny spin on banknotes. Here's one on the invisible ink used in banknotes as a security feature:

I believe he's been inspirational in getting young collectors started. "How cool is that?"

Banknote World puts out a series of interesting videos on large sized notes & below approaches to collecting themes:

Recently, I just viewed a fascinating zoom presentation by Jonathan Callaway & the IBNS.

The International Bank Note Society (IBNS) are the folks who host the Banknote of the Year awards and can be found here:

Finally, if you still would like to see more, than please pop over to Notaphylic Culture's Social Media page:

There are loads of great interviews, Coin Television & links to all sorts of interesting numismatic "goodies."

Please feel free to post comments, other interesting videos on collecting currency &/or other S-M videos (or links) below:

One of my favorite posters is Numismatic Notes with Benjamin.
His video stats:
141 videos to date
topic is world notes
each video is either a single note added to his collection or a topical theme (Musical Themes of Banknotes for instance)
average about 15 minutes each

Here is his YouTube link:

-thanks for adding @orac. Very interesting background info on the circumstances of West (& East) Berlin's currency after the war. The info on the constant air traffic to rebuild the economy was fascinating too.

I really enjoy the new generation of You-tubers who craft a fun, snappy video with interesting narratives such as "Half-asleep Chris" & Fredo Rockwell:

- I think they help the younger generation get into the hobby.

Thanks for these! Very interesting. The UV ink one would fit in nicely in the "Notes Under a UV Light" topic.

It's irritating how amazing those early USA notes are, given that they are really hard and expensive to get here, for the last 20 years I have had educational notes on my want list. Back then I didn't have the money, and now availability and not wanting to pay import taxes are more of an issue. Early USA notes are works of art though.

I hear you, though for me it's only been in the last 5 years that I've wanted one of the Educational series for each denomination. They're very attractive notes. I also wouldn't mind a $5 "Chief" & "Woodchopper" but the prices seem (IN SHORT) "insane." There are far more scarcer notes for a fraction of what a "Chief" will cost me in VF EPQ...so it will keep being pushed down the road for "to do" list (& perhaps down the road I will get one). It also illustrates how demand can be a much bigger influence on the price of these notes rather than scarcity.
[The taxes also suck & there are many US sellers who could care less whether they sell internationally]

Thankfully someone on this forum furnished me with a woodchopper n this little lot 7 years back.



Attending shows here in London nobody seems to have stock of such things anymore.

I am not exactly sure when, but a while back perhaps last year, I started working on my WORLD MOTIF page for my Notaphilyc Culture site.

At first it was just a few notes that I linked to a specific theme. I noticed which notes had certain images I thought may interest those who collect just by motif. Later, just before I started adding my QEII thread, I added a section on QEII notes. Just recently, after LaoPhil added the Monkey thread, I realized I could link some of the threads from CCF & have since expanded it.

Hope you might find it helpful.
