Thanks Dave.. I'll tell you though..the French Notes are really really nice as well. What beautiful pastel colors they used on some great landscape work. Impessive banknotes Sir! RickieB
I think the interesting thing about the Flameng note is it actually started life in 1897 as a 1000 Franc note that made it to essai stage and never went any further. Then in 1918 it made it to the 5000 Franc note which was printed, but not circulated until 1938 and in small quantity. One wonders that there was someone like me that wanted to circulate the note, but there was the gendarmie that kept poo pooing the idea. I love it merely for the art, the contrasting expressions are priceless, ranging from complete disinterest and boredom, to passionate.
