Frequently asked questions
What periods and currencies are represented in this Mozambique banknote category?
This shop’s Mozambique catalog spans dated notes from 1970 through 2017. The records include denominations expressed in both escudos and meticais. Earlier examples include 50, 100, 500 and 1,000 escudos dated 1976, while meticais entries range from 50 meticais dated 1986 to 100,000 meticais dated 1993. These details describe the notes represented in this catalog rather than every banknote issued for Mozambique.
Which notable denomination groups appear in the Mozambique catalog?
The catalog includes lower denominations such as 20, 50, 100 and 200 meticais, as well as higher denominations including 5,000, 20,000 and 100,000 meticais. Escudo-denominated records include 50, 100, 500, 1,000, 10,000 and 50,000 escudos. One clearly grouped run is the 2006 meticais selection: P143a at 20 meticais, P144a at 50, P145a at 100 and P146a at 200.
How can I identify a Mozambique banknote listed in this category?
Use the date, denomination, currency and Pick reference together. For example, the catalog distinguishes the 1976 50 escudos as P116, the 1980 500 meticais as P127 and the 2017 20 meticais as P149b. Relying on denomination alone may be insufficient because 100 meticais appears under references including P126, P130a, P130c and P145a. Matching all listed identifiers provides a clearer catalog attribution.
What do suffixes such as “a,” “b” and “c” mean in the listed Pick references?
Letters attached to a Pick number identify cataloged variants within the same reference family. This Mozambique category includes P130a for a 1983 100 meticais note and P130c for a 1989 100 meticais note. It also lists P133a dated 1988 and P133b dated 1989, both at 5,000 meticais. Collectors should retain the full reference, including its suffix, rather than recording only P130 or P133.
What should a buyer check before ordering a Mozambique banknote?
Check the listing’s date, denomination, currency, complete Pick reference and stated grade. The catalog titles describe the notes as UNC. Also read the image note carefully: many listings state that the image is for reference and that the banknote number shown will not be sent, while some records state that the banknote corresponds with the image. An active catalog record by itself should not be treated as confirmation that the item can be purchased.
Which Mozambique references in the catalog are useful for building date-and-variant comparisons?
P130 and P133 provide particularly clear comparison groups. The catalog identifies P130a as a 1983 100 meticais note and P130c as a 1989 100 meticais note. It also identifies P133a as a 1988 5,000 meticais note and P133b as a 1989 5,000 meticais note. These pairings let collectors organize notes by denomination, date and suffix while avoiding unsupported assumptions about differences not specified in the listings.
