- Beautiful... and strange... but not sure we've got the EV in "Dutch guilder". A general article on playing card money, sure. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:11, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not sure there is enough information (reliable sources). I could hardly find anything on the internet and even the general world numismatic references don't have more than a sentence or two for card money in Dutch Guiana...-Godot13 (talk) 05:22, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
- Not even just the Dutch Guiana; playing card money (i.e. on the actual practice, which there should be plenty of sources on) is still a redlink. The image would have much higher EV in an article like that. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:33, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
Well, until I have time to write that article, I'll withdraw this...-Godot13 (talk) 06:51, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
- I can help, if need be. This is a very interesting image and I want to see it featured... just don't think it reaches the EV threshold yet. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:53, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

on the condition that the new article (card money) is expanded. I'll be doing some of that, so don't think there's much to worry about. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:05, 11 September 2014 (UTC) - Support - interesting and informative - the card money article is looking good too.

- Support By the way, I'd love to get some good samples of historic playing cards as well - there's just something a bit more interesting about the older ones. That or historic Tarot. Adam Cuerden (talk) 11:40, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
