 * Reason:High quality, high EV. One rupiah from the first issue, first series of rupiah banknotes (dated 1945/issued 1946) in the year Indonesia claimed independence, which was recognized in 1949. Between issuance and independence, these notes were not recognized outside of Indonesia and had no exchange rate.

 * Support - Yes, yes, and yes! (sorry about the shampoo commercial). Lovely piece of history, even if the banknote could be cleaner. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:05, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Support - There's loads of cleaning (as Crisco says) that can be done here that I would support as well. Coat of Many Colours (talk) 09:46, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Support - Ah, Indonesian money... That is what made Crisco exited. Hafspajen (talk) 12:08, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment - Respectfully (and mentioned once before), I am uncomfortable doing restoration work on an item that the Smithsonian has allowed me to digitize for them as an accurate and true record of the object (and its condition).--Godot13 (talk) 04:54, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I know, but that red fiber looks like something foreign that got into the scanner. Sorry if it isn't, but that was my impression. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:24, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Scanner dirt is another issue... Can you locate/annotate the fiber in question on the commons file so I can see? Thanks.-Godot13 (talk) 16:42, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I struck my comment. You can see red fibres at 100% in the vicinity of the right text box on the reverse side, but I don't think that's scanner dirt but rather artefacts from the red over-printing. Coat of Many Colours (talk) 02:44, 4 July 2014 (UTC)
 * The upper borders of the note's obverse as well... but yeah, looking again it appears to be some kind of ink or pencil marking... — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:43, 4 July 2014 (UTC)
