<p>[QUOTE="MEC2, post: 1678920, member: 38692"]Today's new get is an upgrade of a note I had in VF, to this nice AU or higher. This 1944 Greek 100 Drachma note is one of the first post occupation notes and it's a great design. The front has Miss Greece 2008 on it, while the reverse has a great engraving of an angel or winged goddess the provenance of which I cannot determine (you know how many hits you get on Greece winged goddess sculpture???). The blue color and reverse engraving are what got me interested on this one, so interested I wanted a really nice example. Got the new note for the same as the old one, so happy to go up in quality but not in price. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Greek%20Notes/100DF_zps0a433f21.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Greek%20Notes/100DB_zpsbeeba0b5.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
