<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 808874, member: 4626&quot;]Picked this up today with my tax refund money:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.banknotebank.com/coin_view_enlarge.aspx?id=926292" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.banknotebank.com/coin_view_enlarge.aspx?id=926292" rel="nofollow">United Kingdom, 1 pound, 1919</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The size of this dragon in relation to St. George kind of makes St. George look like a bully for killing it, doesn&#039;t it?&nbsp; I mean, it&#039;s half the size of his horse.&nbsp; Hardly seems like a legendary feat.</p><p><br /></p><p>Love the details on this note though.&nbsp; Can clearly see the folds on St. George&#039;s cloak, the scales on the dragon, etc.&nbsp; Love the way the &quot;One Pound&quot; is superimposed over the portrait as if it were translucent.&nbsp; Great details on Parliament on the reverse too.</p><p><br /></p><p>I kind of prefer pro-dragon depictions of dragons on my notes as opposed to anti-dragon like this one (though to be fair what I know of the St. George and dragon legend, this dragon probably had it coming), but I still like this note and think it&#039;s a great addition to the collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
