Hello,I am Aidan Work from a very cold wintery New Zealand.My area of numismatic interest is,quite naturally,the British Commonwealth.In addition to being a collector of banknotes,coins,postal orders,& traders' currency tokens from across the British Commonwealth,I am also the Owner-Administrator of the British Commonwealth Numismatic Forum,which you can find here.
To deter spammers,a Real Names Policy is in force.
You can see photos of some items in my collection here,here,here,& here.
The photos have been edited using a photo editor,which can be downloaded for FREE here.
My favourite area of British Commonwealth numismatics is British Africa.I've been busy collecting Zimbabwe's Bearer Cheques,whose highest denomination is now the $100,000,000,000 Special Agro-Cheque.
Please let me know what you think.
Aidan.

I enjoyed viewing your photo albums.
While in N.Z., will you be visiting any B&M coin stores?
Do you use http://www.trademe.co.nz/.

If someone (in the USA) wanted to purchase a Zimbabwe Bearer Cheque...how would that be done?
I don't know what you mean by 'B&M'.As to being registered on here,the answer is 'No',as you have to have a credit card to be registered.I do have an account here though,but I've not yet put anything for sale on there though.You don't even need to have a credit card to be registered at all.
Adam,
I don't have any contacts in Zimbabwe.I do know of a collector over here who does.I've bought mine in from a couple of dealers in Australia.

Cheers!

Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
You'll like it here and there are a few of we New Zealand collectors.
Even if you already know a lot of us.
Are you familiar with the Standard Catalog of World Coins by Krause and Mishler? If so, what is your opinion of the pricing of New Zealand coins in the catalog?
<< <i>Hi Aidan-

Yes,I am very familiar with the Krause catalogue.The prices for both New Zealand coins & traders' currency tokens are an absolute joke - a lot of them are priced TOO low,in my view.
Bob,
I can't take photos of where I work,as I've only got a flat-bed scanner,not a digital camera.You should download that Photoscape editing tool.It is absolutely FREE after all,& saves you from digging into your pocket to use your hard earned cash to buy one of those expensive photo editors.You'd be better off spending some cash adding some nice banknotes & coins to your collection.

I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
What's on the reverse of that medal-coin? I can't tell from looking at the obverse picture.
