+GATOULIS Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) Hello to all from Rhodes island in Greece! Happy new year to all! you probably do not know me... and I can see only 1 or 2 familiar codenames! Hello Carbon Hunter! how are you? Happy new year my friend! I would like to ask you something... It is not a geocaching thing and I am a little shy in that... I do not want to be missunderstood in my question or something... but is anyone from Orania of south africa? I am a coin and banknote collector.. but mostly in cheap notes...because except of the economy crisis here.. my wallet limits are way too low... anyway... I accidently saw a polymer banknote that had that name... Orania and it was in Ora... (10 ora) they was from south africa but from an area.... a city.. which has different currency! (there is a complete series... 10, 20, ... I think...) unfortunatelly here it is not possible to find any for my collection.. so I was wondering if these are in circulation... and can be found... if you could help me in that! I just need one... the cheapest! I will sent the money (the 10 ora is about 1 euro...) cash in a letter (I do not have paypal etc.. sorry..)to you.. From south africa I have the 10 and 20 rand notes (they are so pretty!!)... but I have never heard anything about the other... local money... I am wondering if others exist too... thank you in advance and sorry if I entered with something that doesn't have to do with Geocaching! Happy geocaching to everyone!!!

+VryBurgers Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Hallo there. This link may be interesting to you then: http://www.orania.co.za/english/?page_id=27 It is the website that describes the way they came about the Ora etc. I know someone that travels that way frequently and shall ask him to see what he can do for you. Have a great day! Quote Link to comment

Have a great day! Oh! you are amazing!!! thank you!!!! It is not easy to find african banknotes here... so these special local notes areeven more difficult to find! Nice link! WOW! I haven't seen the back side of the note! so it is like a gift voucher... like all the local currencies... so they will not have a problem with the bank that issues the real banknotes!
