<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 466335, member: 4626"]Just won these two notes on eBay... great unique acquisitions for my Dragon Collection! Was wondering if anyone had any descriptive info on them, like who they were pinted by, where and about when, etc. I'm guessing Germany (as the text is in German and they're denominated 25 pfenig) and by the style I'd guess they were printed in the early 1920's. The design has some guy on a horse fighting a dragon on what looks like a map of Denmark and nearby areas. (Any story behind that?) If anyone knows anything about these would love to hear it! Especially if you could translate some of the text on them.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.banknotebank.com/coin_view_enlarge.aspx?id=922528" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.banknotebank.com/coin_view_enlarge.aspx?id=922528" rel="nofollow">Notgeld 1</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.banknotebank.com/coin_view_enlarge.aspx?id=922529" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.banknotebank.com/coin_view_enlarge.aspx?id=922529" rel="nofollow">Notgeld 2</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: Can determine at least that they were printed in Suderbrarup, Germany... don't know German but am guessing the text on the left and right side of the front is saying something about Denmark or Danish people.
