<p>[QUOTE="MEC2, post: 1683843, member: 38692"]Keemao, I am jealous, that note is on my get list BAD, I am trying to get my silvers in Lyons Treat and the deuce is hard to find. I sure hope that wasn't an eBay get... </p><p><br /></p><p>Okay, putting my note jealousy aside, let's see today's new pickup shall we? This is a nice Scotland bank note, the front has nice design elements and great bright colors. On closer look though, it appears to be a boar and a sheep dry humping a coat of arms. Interesting... of course, the Scots are known for their love of sheep. So much so it caused the Rolling Stones to pen those famous lyrics, "Hey, McCloud, get off of my ewe..." Thanks folks, I'm here all week, try the veal...</p><p><br /></p><p>Have to be honest, the reverse design is a real let down to me, the scene very much has a high school art final look to it, not like the really dramatic reverses of so many other notes. Enh, still like it as the front is the real star here. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Scotland/UBOPF_zps45f7b390.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Scotland/UBOPB_zps11935a6e.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
