<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MEC2, post: 1693425, member: 38692&quot;]I know Funkee, I&#039;m just playing along, my brother from another mother... but seriously, I don&#039;t bid for $#!+... cheap cheap cheap! I think my Heritage win rate is like 2%. </p><p><br /></p><p>Speaking of cheap, here&#039;s a nice get that is actually a fairly tough get - my cheap cheap cheap bid picked up this very large Greek 25 Drachma note from 1914. I think the seller can actually claim this auction as a theft loss, because I *STOLE* this son of a gun. This note is a taller but not quite as wide a large US note, and because it&#039;s ABNCo, you know you are going to get neat allegorical design - in this case, Trade and Agriculture on the front, very Educational in design. Hermes is on the back, looking sort of cherubic, in a creepy Mr. Herbert kind of way.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;This is a candidate to upgrade in the future, but for now, I like filling in these 1910-20&#039;s Greek designs, they have great engraving and are the golden age of Greek note design, along with the brief designs of the 1954-56, also truly brilliant.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Greek%20Notes/25DrachmaFront_zps6ce188c4.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Greek%20Notes/25DrachmaBack_zpsaeecb104.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
