<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bobbeth87, post: 1533440, member: 18369&quot;]Are there any Italian Note buffs out there?&nbsp; This note, a 1951 50 Lira (Pick 91b), is a nice little note, but I&#039;d like to find out more about it.&nbsp; My Standard Catalogue states that &quot;Italia&quot; is on the left of the note.&nbsp; When I look up Italia on the Web, it states that she usually has a mural helmet on.&nbsp; Take a look at the one below.&nbsp; There are 5 wolves (?) in a row and another above it on this helmet.&nbsp; I&#039;m sure there has to be some type of symbolism there but I can&#039;t find anything written about it.&nbsp; Also, the background desgin on the front actually depicts 2 human figures.&nbsp; What are those?&nbsp; Or who are they or who do they represent?</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m facinated by the symbolism here and hope someone can help.&nbsp; THANKS!!!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/50Lira021.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/50Lira022.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
