lettow Pillar of the Community United States 742 Posts	Posted 01/10/2013 11:47 am The Allied Military Currency 25 schilling note for Austria is a peculiar note. A 20 schilling note was issued with the other AMC notes. At some point the Allied Military Government in Austria decided a 25 schilling note was necessary. Its design is markedly different than the other Austrian AMC notes. It was not well received in Austria and soon withdrawn from circulation. The 25 schilling note was printed by the USBEP while the other Austrian AMC was printed by Forbes Lithograph and in England. Report this Post to the Staff

'5 and 20' is what it means to non German speakers. I once had a 50 schilling note, but that was sold many moons ago. Report this Post to the Staff
