Brunei Coins & Notes

i am very interested in reading one of our truly bruneian blog The Daily Brunei Resources. some of his recent post (re-post) was The Brunei Crest (history and evolution of Brunei crest, which you can see as one of the example, the difference from the $1 Malaya and British Borneo Currency Note from Brunei Resources Post on Money-Not That old Part I, and Money-Not that old part II).

Why i was so much attracted to his article on Money-Not that old Part II? because as soon as i read n saw the $10 note photo, i immediately recall that i have one of a kind. so i re-checked my very few currency collections. i was very upset that i only have a photocopy one (don't blame me for having a '100%-fake-note' (see photo attached below) hehehe.. AT LEAST.. im restoring a little bit of Brunei history and evidences kekekek... sian ah aku ahhowever, i have other few REAL 'Malayan-era' coins (hehehe at least!) but still its not that old though but it has reached a CENTURY of age jua... but im not sure (in fact i don't know) if it was used in Brunei once upon a time ago. the coins below shows:

'1 cent Straits Settlements 1901 (Queen Victoria) & 1904 (Edward VII)',
'1 cent Commisioners Of Currency Malaya 1940 (King George VI)'
'10 cents Malaya And British Borneo 1960 & 1961 (Queen Elizabeth II)' - tahun mama ku lahir, since it says Borneo on the coins im sure it was used in Brunei dulu.
'20 cents Commissioners of Currency Malaya 1950 (King George VI)' - this one i found it by accident (10 years ago? ndaku ingat eh) while betahlil di Kubur dkt Kg Ujung Bukit kh tu blakang Mahkamah bandar. at first it was coated with soil and pyah ku kikis tu see the coin engravement.

so, as we all know these currencies over time will has a higher value. so better keep some for your future sons, daughters and grandchildren to see and keep. who knows like some of our HM's earlier note will sure be valueable in the near future. These are some of my collections (kira zaman duit yg pernah ku pkai la) $1 1978 (akupun alum lahir yet) & $5 1983 (maybe baruku pndai kn belusir ni tahun ani) and very recent $1 1994 before the current plastic note was issued.

hehehe... so what do you have on Brunei notes? manatau yg 1994 ani in future may value $500. not impossible
