<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MEC2, post: 1996623, member: 38692&quot;]Today&#039;s new pickup is a Czech addition, one of the post-War notes before the long dark of Soviet rule cast a decades long pall over the country. You&#039;ll note this one has three tiny holes - these are what are normally rare specimens that ended up out there generally. Specimens are normally rare and valuable - but there are numerous Czech notes that are specimens, these have the three small holes, earlier notes actually have specimen punched out in tiny hole lettering - so rather than more valuable, they tend to be less valuable. In this case, I got a clean supernice copy at a cheap price so I am happy, it&#039;s one of my few specimens so it serves a purpose in the collection, even as I avoid Czech specimens in earlier, more highly sought after designs...</p><p><br /></p><p>One bit of appeal on Czech notes for me is the seal with the rampant lions, always dig a rampant seal...</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Czechoslovakia/50Korun1945F.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Czechoslovakia/50Korun1945B.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
