    One of the many reasons why I collect currency, specifically obsolete currency is because of the beautiful vignettes that are on them!

    I love those vignettes as well. Obsolete currency is a wonderful area to collect...The Franklin portraits are very nice~~

    I've always liked the vignettes on obsolete and 19th century notes. Too bad I always focus on other collecting areas and push these to the back of the line.
