Reason
High quality, high EV (presented as a complete set). The first (provisional) issue of paper currency in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia (March 1939) was an unissued 1938 Republic of Czechoslovakia 1 koruna note originally intended for the Czech army. During the beginning of the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, an oval stamp was applied to the unissued 1938 stock of notes, identifying the currency as valid in the Protectorate. Overprint reads: Protektorat Böhmen und Mähren, Protektorat Cechy a Morava. By the 1940 issue, the notes had been customized as Protectorate currency and the stamp was no longer needed. NOTE: The 1 koruna note from 1939 is already featured individually and would simply become part of the set (it would not be featured a second time).
Original
A nine-note complete set of the short-lived Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia issued koruna (1939–44).

  • Support – Historical EV, as usual. Odd that in the beginning the Nazis would have overprinted notes from the (by them) reviled Czech Republic. Sca (talk) 13:10, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I presume the notes varied slightly in size, and not in resolution of scanning? Might be losing that in this; you might want to start listing dpi or sizes on the image descriptions. Not enough of an issue to oppose, though, so Support. Adam Cuerden (talk) 17:08, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Adam - Understood. I will try to list note sizes in the relevant article tables when available. All banknote scans are at 800dpi unless otherwise noted, some are downsized slightly.--Godot13 (talk) 02:07, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I like the American milk carton style missing children images on the 10 and 20 Korun notes. Do you know the whereabouts of Hansel or Gretel? Last seen in the dark forest. Belle (talk) 17:34, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
