[QUOTE="MEC2, post: 1638245, member: 38692"]If it was lime then no explanation is necessary - I am compelled to acquire all lime notes within my grasp. Alas, this is the blue green seal... My next new pickup took a while to get but I am glad I waited and got the right example, this 1927 50 Drachma note is uncommon but you will usually see one listed on eBay at any time. The key is to get one that doesn't look like a dishrag, and that is far rarer. One nice thing about this old Greek notes is they often integrate engravings of older Greek coins - you get two, two, TWO collectibles in one! Got this at a tremendous price and it's got great face up and snappy paper in hand. Very pleased...
