paul27613 Valued Member United States 152 Posts	Posted 01/19/2015 9:34 pm This is a note from St. John's College in Minnesota. I acquired it as part of a German emergency money collection and it fascinated me. My understanding is that it was used as a kind of teaching aid (I'd call it a prop) for an economics course. Anyone have more context for these kinds of banknotes? I also understand there is a book on this. The author is ? Schiljoth ? Again, any clues on the book author or title? thanks!
