[QUOTE="MEC2, post: 1720924, member: 38692"]I am about at the halfway point on 10 and 20 in the 1934 series, some are more common and easier (1934-A and C) some are tough (B and D)... Let's mix things up and post this large note from Greece. This 1935 100 Drachma note of French design pre-WW2, and they were quickly put out of circulation due to their very delicate nature as they didn't hold up well in circulation. This is the harder of the three French designed issues to get in decent condition, and it completes the set for me. The note is huge, larger than a US large size. Looking at the front, the feminine features of the appearingly lipstick adorned Hermes and pastel colors along with Greek heritage immediately screams "catamite". I'll wait while you look that up...
