Greetings!

 

When registering some banknotes from Suriname in Numista (more precisely, from the 1951 series), I came across a printer that is not yet registered here on the site.

 

This is "De Bussy, Amsterdam (Netherlands) - DBA". This printer also appears on banknotes for the Netherlands (P#63) and the Netherlands Indies (P#103 and P#104), for example.

 

Therefore, I request the inclusion of this new printer for inclusion in future registrations.

 

Thank you in advance!

 

Vladimir.

Hi Jarek!

 

According to the Krause Catalog 1368-1960 (16th edition, 2017), De Bussy Amsterdam is a printer; that is, it looks like it was a banknote issuing workshop. However, this printer appears on very few banknotes in the Netherlands, Dutch Indies and Suriname (photos attached).

 

I searched the internet for more information about the workshop, but I confess that I did not find anything about it. I wanted to put a link to this printer, but I couldn't find it. I only found the reference on the Colnect.com website with https://colnect.com/br/banknotes/list/country/202-Suriname/series/54319-1949-1960_Issues/printer/259-De_Bussy_Amsterdam_Netherlands_ -_DBA">issues from “De Bussy”.

 

Anyway, as it appears in very few issues, I'm putting it as an observation in the records I'm requesting. If any user here in the community has more information about this workshop, it would be of great help to clarify any doubts! =)

 

Yours sincerely, Vladimir.

More information would indeed be good, but I added the printer now.

No doubt! I'll keep looking for some fonts for a few days.

 

Anyway, thanks so much for adding the printer!
