I've wondered if all the notes of the same denomination have the same serial numbers. No matter which listing I looked at, they only showed 1 note of each type.
Yes they are supposed to be used to train Chinese Tellers and Chinese Checkers about US currency the auction said. They are real good photo copies no embossing but the paper feels right or pretty close to right.
No, they print training notes which seem to be different from actual money in various regards. And it is not exactly news either; here is an article from 2011 that shows similar pieces - without serial numbers though. http://www.coinbooks.org/esylum_v14n25a14.html Christian
I think they're suppose to be different sizes than that of normal US currency, can the OP say if that is true with this notes?

It sounds like they also have made "practice" Euros and maybe other currencies, too. Has anyone seen examples of these?
The set I bought is about 1/8" longer and 1/32" taller than actual US currency if it didn't have the chop marks it would most convenient store tellers
They don't feel correct, I have some too that I present at coin shows. They look real at first glance but once you touch them, the paper is not consistent with current currency.
