Here's a Google-translated announcement about a new book on Macedonian banknotes.
-Editor
A new banknote catalogue has reached us from North Macedonia, which is suitable for beginners as well as for advanced collectors.
The catalogue is bilingual (Macedonian, translation into English by Jovan Strezoski) and all the requirements that a catalogue should have can be found on its 96 pages: a complete list of all Macedonian and North Macedonian banknotes since 1993, a valuation in euros and, for many collectors, the most important thing of all: the author has endeavoured to provide complete illustrations of all the notes listed, as far as he was able.
This book also has added value for those collectors who have removed the area from their missing list because it was too complete for their collection, as it also documents designs, illustrations and overstampings of all kinds.
The first two chapters contain a list of all, but really all, issues since the secession of Yugoslavia in 1993. These include the first two provisional series from 1993, all variants and issue dates of the regular series since 1996 of the "National Bank of the Republic of Macedonia" and, of course, also the polymer issues and the issues with the changed bank name "National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia".
All sample notes with SPECIMEN overprint are also shown and evaluated.
Finally, in the third and fourth chapters, all design series and unrealized designs are presented; the archives of the central bank were probably used for this purpose.
Further chapters contain propaganda designs (e.g. with the image of Alexander the Great), the propaganda stamps ("Суверена Македонија", Sovereign Macedonia) on Yugoslav banknotes, the Kosovo stamps on Macedonian banknotes ("Banka Provizore e Republikës së Kosovës") as well as various carnival notes, including those from Vevcani.
Finally, for all specialists, the local overstampings on German, Austro-Hungarian and Bulgarian banknotes are listed, which can probably only be found in high-quality special collections or in the archives of the Central Bank of Macedonia.
