<p>[QUOTE="vrt, post: 738558, member: 15308"]It would be stupid of me even assume you didn't know the origin of the motif, names of engravers and whole story behind the note. Sure there never will be a US note 1/10 that beautiful anymore (remember security vs. liberty? nowdays it's much more important to recognize a counterfit - in 50 years there probably will not be paper money anymore - only plastic and all transactions will be accounted for - I'm trying to say "enjoy what we still have"). </p><p> </p><p>Nevertheless your statement "the note represents Strength and Growth of our Country during it's ascent to power" is still confusing for me. How this note is different from any other (ugly) note with regard of pride for the Country?
