<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 8108063, member: 17665"]Poor condition Joy but still collectible just for the history behind these. These were used during a major coin shortage in our country for a short time to keep commerce running. Postage stamps were also used just prior to these but got destroyed too easily so fractional notes were issued. Because they were easily counterfeited, a later version incorporated an overprint on notes to discourage counterfeiting. Best enjoy and put in a sleeve to protect it. Not much value here but interesting to be sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
