Asia here is only referred to Southern Asia and the rest of Western (Middle East) and Central Asia. I have separated SouthEast Asia and East Asia with different links here.


many of the banknotes posted here do not need descriptions. the designs are beautiful enough for me to add any more details - a picture is worth a thousand words

Here are some odd notes issued between 1986 to 1994. These notes were bought randomly along the way in my collection. The designs for the lower denominations are a bit mystical. Interesting to see that none of the Kings, past or present, were depicted on the three low denominations of notes.

I personally still favour collecting them in full sets if I can. Unfortunately this is not always possible.

I have added the 100 ngultrum issued (nd)1986 to this post. I cannot confirm if this note was issued in 1986 as I am aware that on another banknote website site, it was reported that this note was issued in 1985. There are two varieties of this note. The one that I have posted here was the first print with fractional serial prefix, while the second issue was with double letter serial prefix. Both notes bear the same Chairman (Governor) signature. 

I personally find the design for this note is quite nice especially on the back.
