<p>[QUOTE="MEC2, post: 1665885, member: 38692"]Well as promised here is my new Greek pickup, this is the note that first got me interested in collecting Greece, and for that matter, non-US currency. This is part of the great 1950's run of wonderful designed Greek notes, and this note is no slouch. Just a wonderful, historical design. The side profile of Alexander on the front with the Hercules in battle scene in the background, and then on the reverse Alexander from the famous mosaic depicting the Battle of Issus. I did pick up in short order a more ragged specimen of this note, and finally acquired a far nicer version (two actually, another is in the mail and will be the one I leave out next to some bronze statues of Macedonian soldiers). Enjoy!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Greek%20Notes/1KDF_zps113671ee.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Greek%20Notes/1KDB_zps11ec06e6.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
