<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bobbeth87, post: 1462542, member: 18369&quot;]Background:&nbsp; My step-mother is from Russia and migrated to America as a small child during WWII.&nbsp; Her family brought a few coins and paper money with them.&nbsp; I received these and other world notes in 2009 in a big wad in a plastic bag along with some nice US notes in presentation folders.&nbsp; I have already posted my $1 type set that I worked on for 2+ years learning about and purchasing notes to complete that set.&nbsp; So, I&#039;m now working on the rest of my book.&nbsp; I&#039;ve taken the wadded up notes and put them in folders and decided to learn as much as I could about them for my own benefit, and to make it interesting and educational to anyone looking at my collection.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p><b>A special THANK YOU to CT member Rhino89 </b>who provided me with tremendous help in translation and information about these notes.&nbsp; I am truly impressed with the quality of the Russian Imperial notes especially.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>If you enjoy this chapter in my Paper Money book half as much as I enjoyed putting it together, then your time will have been well spent.</p><p><br /></p><p>Side note, my step mother will come to visit me in a couple of months and I can&#039;t wait to show her what I&#039;ve done with these.</p><p><br /></p><p>The presentation looks like this:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/IMG_0854.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>That is from chapter one, but it gives you an idea of how it is presented.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>At some point, I will probably add to this collection as I really enjoy these notes.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>NOTE:&nbsp; Rhino89, Siberian Man, and anyone else who is familiar with these notes, PLEASE let me now if I have any facts wrong, any typos, or if you have any suggestions of additional information I could add to what I have printed.&nbsp; You won&#039;t hurt my feelings, I want this to be as good as I can get it.&nbsp; THANKS.</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Here it is.&nbsp; Enjoy:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes101.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes102.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes103.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes104.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes105.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes106.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes107.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes108.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes109.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes110.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes111.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes112.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes113.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes114.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes115.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes116.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes117.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes118.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes119.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes120.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i917.photobucket.com/albums/ad15/bobbeth87/RussianNotes121.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
