Message:: [QUOTE="adtrace, post: 350168, member: 9101"]Hey folks, I bought a whack of circulated bills of international currency for 10 euros when I was over in Europe this past month. I don't know in particular what any of them are (though I of course have an idea). My biggest question relates to the last photo on here. The bill (bad shape as its in) is dated 1905. Is it pre-revolutionary soviet? As for the rest, I think I have them pegged. The first is dime-a-dozen "Banana Money". At least it's uncirculated though. The Kronen is Austro-Hungarian. I am a bit curious about the "Eine/Egy" and "Zwei/Ket", but I'm assuming that's just the denomination (1 & 2 respectively), right? The Reichsbanknote are obviously German bills. Is there any significance to the bottom left bill? It's a markedly different looking, but perhaps this is just an earlier design (it's 1914, while the other two are 1922). Then the two notes I figured were Soviet Union based on the hammer and sickle, but I've been searching Soviet Currency and it doesn't match the photos of bills I've found yet. I know these are all worthless, but it was a fun find for next to nothing. I felt bad for them as they were all in a crumpled up box (less the Japanese note).[/QUOTE]
