Cassa Mediterranea banknotes
These banknotes were issued by Italian forces in occupied Greece during World War II. These drachma banknotes from the 1940s were no longer exchangeable following the defeat of the Axis powers. We have reinstated the exchange of Cassa Mediterranea banknotes for a value that covers their numismatic value.Get started here: Exchange your Cassa Mediterranea banknotes
East German DDR Mark banknotes
From 1948 until 1989 the East of Germany was under the control of Soviet Russia. East Germany had its own currency, the DDR mark, which was exchangeable until 1990. We have reinstated the exchange of East-German DDR mark banknotes.Get started here: Exchange your East German DDR mark banknotes
