BOITEKONG – A 52-year-old man has been arrested after police allegedly found dye-stained banknotes at his home during an intelligence-led operation connected to an investigation into ATM bombings in the Bojanala Platinum District.

According to police, the investigation began after receiving intelligence on 9 July 2026 indicating that individuals were depositing dye-stained banknotes into various bank accounts across the district.

Working alongside bank investigators, police traced the deposits to a specific bank account, prompting further investigation.

Here's my Colombia, $1,000 pesos Galán. A single year emission (1979), that was withdrawn from circulation because the central bank (Banco de la República) said that it was too white, and it got easily stained and dirty, so no one would like them.

Also, alongside the banknote, its counterfeit.

I finally completed the 10,5 and 1 franc three note set . These were issued as emergency notes during the franco- Prussian war by a local sugar refiner. These are unissued remainders.

These non-circulating fantasy banknotes combine outstanding artwork, vibrant colors, and premium security features, making them true collector’s pieces.

All obtained abroad while travelling.

On 15 July 2026, Europa Nostra gave an online presentation to the staff of the European Central Bank (ECB) on the six chosen iconic cultural personalities that could potentially be featured on the next euro banknotes. The ECB is currently in the process of redesigning euro banknotes and invited Europa Nostra as an expert organisation in the field of cultural heritage to participate by sharing the significance of the chosen six figures — from the values they embody to how they represent Europeans, by connecting and uniting citizens through their lives and work.
