<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsalexan, post: 1616519, member: 24274&quot;]You piqued my curiosity with this thread and I wondered if there were other souvenir cards that depicted portraits or scenes also used on MPCs. In fact there are a number of them, but I never made the connection because I hadn&#039;t seen images of some of the fronts/backs of the later series. Correct me if I&#039;m wrong, but I don&#039;t think any MPCs were intaglio engraved. So the cards are about the only way to obtain the original engravings.</p><p><br /></p><p>The souvenir card you posted is B244 from the set issued by the BEP in 2000. There&#039;s another card in this set with an image also from MPC Series 681 -- the $10 note. This card is B246. The note is not mine, I only post it here for comparison.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know the two Indian chiefs that appear on the high value MPCs in Series 692 can also be found on souvenir cards. There is one portrait from Series 692 and I believe one back from Series 701 that also appear on cards. These are all high ticket notes, so they are seldom seen, but I will try to find and post matching images.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
