<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 939430, member: 19065&quot;]I was also looking for notes in banknote searches online but came up empty handed. There are a lot of abstract security features that look like spoked wheels and such. I thought maybe early modern Chinese currency might feature vignettes with people on bicycles but couldn&#039;t locate anything. I seached &#039;bicycle&#039; on <a href="http://www.scripophily.net/frbiclwiviof.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.scripophily.net/frbiclwiviof.html" rel="nofollow">Scripophily.net</a> and found this stock certificate, if you happen to consider these engravings an extension of your theme-collection. This search is a tough one indeed. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.scripophily.com/webcart/vigs/frederickbicycleclubvig.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]88313.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.scripophily.net/whecoco.html" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://www.scripophily.net/whecoco.html" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/scripophily/wehendricksvig.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]88314.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Off topic:</b></p><p>In my search for your bicycle-themed note(s), I can add that I turned up a note from Greenland that features a <b><a href="http://weecheng.com/europe/greenice/greenland/banknote1.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://weecheng.com/europe/greenice/greenland/banknote1.jpg" rel="nofollow">whale vignette</a></b>, something I have been looking for myself for quite some time as it pertains to a particular interest of my reading. I read a lot of books on the history of Nantucket, the early history of whaling and the economy it defined in the Americas and particularly the stories of actual events that lead Melville to write his fiction, Moby Dick. I guess it was worth a few moments looking for bicycles and velocipedes on notes and coins today. :smile[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
