<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1384773, member: 39&quot;]The Notgeld piece from the city of Coblenz (today Koblenz, in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate) features the &quot;Augenroller&quot;, by the way. That relief can be found on the facade of the Altes Kaufhaus. It depicts the head of a thief who, in the 16th century, was executed and is said to have said <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> that the Koblenzers should exhibit his head as that would bring them luck. According to the same legend, the guy&#039;s head, once chopped off, still rolled his eyes and stuck his tongue out.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, <a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Datei:Koblenz_im_Buga-Jahr_2011_-_Altes_Kaufhaus_02.jpg&amp;filetimestamp=20110628180202" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Datei:Koblenz_im_Buga-Jahr_2011_-_Altes_Kaufhaus_02.jpg&amp;filetimestamp=20110628180202" rel="nofollow">this relief</a> in Koblenz reminds of him. The eyes are constantly moving to the left and right, and every 30 minutes the tongue appears ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
