Not sure if this one (P130a) has already been posted here on this thread but having just received it in the mail recently, I figured I could post it now. Galileo wasn't the only one who proposed a heliocentric solar system but back in the day he was probably the most controversial & high profiled scientist (& often in hot water with the Catholic church for not recanting such heresy!)

-thanks "ShareBear"
I have found Italian banknotes somewhat tough to acquire at or below BV in UNC or high grades. This first prefix with the "Carli/Barbarito" (c 1973) signature combo which was the shortest (lasted a mere 3 years) so has some promise as a "gainer" (rather than "loser") in future BV too. I won this auction for about 60% of P103c (the last, least valuable & likely longest signature variety/most hoarded). I'm adding this "footnote" because I truly believe that world banknotes are good value right now (as compared to CDN, US, UK, Aus & NZ or Euro banknotes). I try to cover topics like these in my short videos and on my website: https://sites.google.com/view/notap...culture/home

Was going to post this in the Avian thread, but thought it more appropriate here.
Sweden - King Gustav on front, and the scientist Linnaeus on back (Carl Von Linne) who was both a zoologist and medical doctor. His biggest claim to fame was that he formatted the system of taxonomy - which I learned of by watching Saturday morning cartoons when the Tid-Bitius Velocitus was being chased by the Hungrii Flea-Baggius.

The reverse and obverse of a German notgeld issued in the university city of Jena, showing the physicist (hope that's ok) Ernst Abbe. His theoretical and technical innovations in optical theory led to great improvements in microscope design

Which is appropriate, Jena being home to numerous companies prominent in the German optical industry. Abbe worked closely with the firm of Carl Zeiss which was located there.
