<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MEC2, post: 1562641, member: 38692&quot;]Bonniview - I don&#039;t recall it taking that long, but I live in Dallas so I just pick them up at their office here. </p><p><br /></p><p>AND I finally got one of my Greek notes that takes forever because... they mail it from Greece. Add postal service to the list of things the Greeks are not good at. But they are good at having neat stuff on their currency! All the old coins are awesome. This note is from 1927, a bit bigger than modern US currency, with quality engraving because... it&#039;s another ABNCo note. Happy to get this in this quality, not very rare but not common either. Note the red overprint, the bank changed from the National Bank of Greece to Bank of Greece but there weren&#039;t notes prepared so they issued them and put the red stamp overprint on them. Add banking to the list of things the Greeks are not good at...</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Greek Notes/100Drachma1927A.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Greek Notes/100Drachma1927B.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
