<p>[QUOTE="VistaCruiser69, post: 3727855, member: 107016"]Here's a few examples of old foreign currency I received from a very elderly lady in her 80's back when I was a teenager working at a donut shop. She was a widow and spent her last years working at the shop. If I helped her do her work, she would reward me by giving me a hand full of these old bills that she had picked up on her worldly travels during her youth when she was married. To me they were not worth anything, but I saved them because they were cool looking and I know they meant something to her since she had saved them for many years before giving them to me. Actually she had given me in total around 50,000 to 100,000 in Japanese yen (1000 yen notes). But since I eventually moved to and lived in Japan, I spent them just like regular currency.</p><p> </p><p>Anyways, there are a few of the examples that she had given me. Thought I'd post a picture of some of my favorite ones.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
