matthewvincent Pillar of the Community United States 3486 Posts	Posted 08/23/2013 2:14 pm Off the top of my head these appear to be Notgeld Notes. The extremely high denominations were dictated by the hyper-inflation in Germany during the early 1920s. While of not great value, they are interesting, colorful and collected by people who are interested in the historical period.This link takes you to a short overview: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notgeld Report this Post to the Staff

matthewvincent Pillar of the Community United States 3486 Posts	Posted 08/23/2013 2:49 pm Stadt Trier? I was in Trier in 1974. The Romans reached this area and built an outpost. Close to the Luxembourg border, it was the closest that I got to a Roman ruin. à¸‚à¸à¸‚à¸à¸šà¸„à¸¸à¸"à¸„à¸¸à¸" Is there a better way to say 'thank you?' Report this Post to the Staff
