The Banco de Kamberra is a fantasy issuer — no such institution exists, and "Kamberra" is a fictionalized rendering of Canberra, the Australian capital. These notes were produced as artist's collectibles or novelty pieces, not as instruments of any monetary authority. The "Numisma" denomination is self-referential: the word derives from the Greek for coin or currency, signaling that these were designed to be collected rather than spent.
Franck Medina is a French designer known for producing elaborate fantasy note series marketed directly to collectors, typically in limited runs.
