Looks like the notes made from tissue-thin gold or silver. If they are indeed legal tender in Antigua/Barbuda, that would be about US$1100 in face value, but it might be awfully hard to convince a bank there of the legal tender status. I doubt that melt value would be of any consequence.
I can't imagine such a specialty item as this would be worth more than the US$1100 exchange value to a collector.
New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
I saw a $30 NOTE SET(same two countries) just sell for $177.00. This set had one bid at the starting price(dont know what his max was), so I offered her $185.00 with shipping and she closed the auction. I didnt bid on the $30 NOTE SET, it had an animal theme, I liked the pirate theme better. I had no idea what to bid anyway! If in fact they are legal tender, I guess you can value this set at over 3 times the other. Maybe I just found where I will vacation next year!
You can fool man but you can't fool God! He knows why you do what you do!
