    Interesting read @BasSWarwick , thanks for sharing.

    When I think of women on banknotes (Macapagal-Arroyo president of the Philippines) I think of the reverse of their 200 Pesos (P-195/203/214) & her swearing in ceremony:

    I also think of Kate Sheppard from New Zealand on their $10 (P-182):
    N-Z $10_P182 ZZrep.jpeg

    And the reverse of the Canadian Journey $50 featuring the famous FIVE or the "Alberta 5" & Therese Casgrain:
