<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dave M, post: 2633179, member: 17469&quot;]In my youth in France, a banknote&#039;s size was related to its face value. And I think that was common in a lot of countries, and just how it was done. So you had both notes that were smaller than current US notes, and then those that were quite a bit larger. I suppose with inflation, as they needed the next larger denomination, there was an assumption that it would also be physically larger. The large ones were always stored folded in your wallet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
