New Issues<br />
Compiled by Ronny Hick 8967 and Hans-Dieter Müller LM-198<br />
This list of new banknotes has been compiled with the<br />
assistance of <strong>IBNS</strong> members and our thanks go to those<br />
who have helped us.<br />
We welcome input from all readers of the <strong>IBNS</strong> Journal and<br />
ask that reports of new issues be sent to new-issues@ibns.biz; but,<br />
before sending scans please check whether we are already aware<br />
of a new issue and also if we have a suitable image. Simply go<br />
to the <strong>IBNS</strong> web site, www.the<strong>IBNS</strong>.org, and select New Issues<br />
from the menu. All new issues for the next <strong>IBNS</strong> Journal will be<br />
listed there as they are reported. (If scans are submitted, please<br />
scan the images at 300 dpi and at 100%.) Unfortunately, we don’t<br />
have enough space in the Journal to illustrate all notes that are<br />
submitted, but we will reproduce as many as we can.<br />
In the list the entries with “◊” indicate the note is a new type<br />
and eligible for the <strong>IBNS</strong> Bank Note of the Year Award, whereas other<br />
entries are new varieties, with changes in signatories, dates, etcetera.<br />
Exchange rates, current at the time of listing, are given in<br />
Euros and US Dollars. Exchange values are calculated as at 18<br />
April 2009 unless otherwise stated.<br />
