In Reply to: Old Rp notes posted by morrowfamily on Thursday, 25. June 2009 at 08:39 Bali Time:
Regarding the US notes, I was told in 2007 when I went last, that the notes had to be current as they did a reprint a few years back.
I also believe that it is the case with the Rupiah as well, 20 years is too far back, their money has changed since then also.
I know a lot of money changers in Bali will not accept old notes.
If I were you, I would change them here before you go and buy some new ones.
Better to be safe than sorry when you get there.
