Chai! You are very correct..

Wow... 1 naira notes... Nostalgic.!

Ten kobo that was later changed to brown and the size reduced to 5kobo.

Then 1naira changed into those heavy coins. That thing can weigh down mens pockets?? We Used to shake daddy's breast pocket for coins those days.

My first school money was 5kobo. Very tiny dull coin.

Here's 50 kobo. Big girls money then. My elder sis used to shakor with this note.

See the 50kobo I always used to buy colored icefream from my 1naira church offering.

Those ice cream sellers will just be at the children church gate waiting for us wey no dey give all our offering money.

It's good you have felt a fraction of what your grandfather passed through at the hands of that entitled grandma of yours who believes her husband's money is theirs and her's is for her alone.

I wouldn't be surprised if your grandfather borrowed money from Isusu groups when his wife had such cash in her mini billion van

I want to believe you're being sarcastic.

Awo oooooo.
Awolowo.

The father of yoruba people.

The One Naira na my pop corn money that time, every evening I must buy pop corn from mama Mafe until one of my step mum stopped me from the daily contribution.

Sweet memory.

So today I was poking around in my family old stuffs when I stumbled on my grandma's wooden box. I opened it I found a lot of interesting stuffs inside. There's this small bag that contains old Nigerian currency, both note and coins. It pained me somehow because thats a cool cash back in the days.

When Nigeria was good

This thread is posted twice every year. New members, debate away.

You better go and bury them inside her grave before she go come vex with you

Stingy old woman!

Damn. Open a museum

If this kind old money discover for Europe imagine how much e go worth..


But for naija na the other way round... Na d same reason Biafran pounds get more value than naira.. Because biFra pounds maintain e posture.. Nigerian niara no get posture..


Na anywhere belle face... For now e face fown

That's why saving money in piggy bank or boxes is useless. Once the paper is redesigned, the value of the money returns to zero. The true value of money is in the bank, those numbers.

You are wrong sir. A federal bank does not just wake up to redesign notes. Wasn't it so recent we moved to polymer and nobody suffered any loss. Those old notes gradually phase out on it's own.

please how many months can scent leaf (Basil) be planted from seeds to harvest?
or does it just takes 2 or 3 weeks.......

please how profitable Basil/scent leaf (Efirin) farming is in Nigeria?

can someone really make money farming Basil/scent leaf especially here in Lagos?

i urgently need advice........

I will buy those coins if you wish to sell them. and if there are beads( ileke iyun in yoruba) in the box, here is your buy. 0*8*1*3*4*3*4*2*3*0*8

Such a disrespectful comment to make about her. Did his grandpa appear to you to complain about his grandma? I don't know why people talk carelessly. You call her entitled when you know absolutely nothing about her.
You owe it to him to apologise.

Really

Mama would have "saved" our dying economy from this incompetent administration.

Imagine Mama as the current Minister of Economy.

mama thought she will go with the money.

......show some respect to the dead, don't speak ill of 'em'

Wen that country's currency had value

But now......

swallowed 50kobo Pictures or adonbilivit

I personally swallowed 1kobo Coin as a child when I was about 2 years old. I was taken to the hospital and given some medicines that helped me pass it out through the anus. 1 kobo coin then (Copper coin) was bigger in size than this recent 50k coin.
So I believe him.

That's when Naira still has value

No wonder your zombeism is top notch. Product of leaking polygamous home

To think that a thousand naira can barely buy what this one naira could buy in those days is deeply depressing. Our currency has become one of the most useless tissue paper currencies we have in Africa today. In a few years from now, a litre of fuel will be selling at 1000naira.

Good old days indeed..

Today that 1 naira note is equivalent to 1000 naira note of today while those 10k coins are like today's 100 naira notes.

Back then , naira had value.
