RM1 Ismail Ali 1st Series Z/1 Replacement banknote

This is one of the banknotes that I have been searching for this past few months and just recently managed to buy on in only Fine condition. I have seen a UNC piece selling for RM1800 recently so getting it in any condition is an achievement for a small collector like myself.

This note do not have any holes, stapler holes or any other holes other than the hole in my wallet that it caused when buying it.

I will keep this until I find a better condition for upgrading.

RM1 2nd Series Prefix E/1 Extremely Fine

I have been looking to replace my RM1 E/1 in VF condition for a better grade and finally found a piece in EF condition last week. The price is also reasonable. For your information who are starting to collect this "One-one colllection", this is for me the fourth most difficult one to get in terms of availability and price. Z/1, A/1 and B/1 occupies the top 3 ranking. So, here it is:

I am still looking for a RM1 Z/1 note for your info, heard the price has skyrocket to RM1800 for an UNC piece. WOW!

Cheers and happy collecting!
