A lovely quartet of notes issued by Nicaragua and all printed on polymer plastic. Included in the set are the 10, 20, 50 and 100 cordobas values – The fronts all feature local landmarks such as the Salvador Allende Port in Managua, a church, the Handicrafts Market and Granada Cathedral. The backs are delightful with vignettes of dancers and a horse and buggy. Uncirculated.
Issued 35 years ago in 1985, these 5000 soles de Oro from Peru are quite striking (P117c) On the front we find a portrait of Francisco Bolognesi, a 19th-century general and national hero. On the back a vignette of miners working underground.
