Thanks jbuck
3 banknotes from Laos, 1, 10 & 20 kip, showing Pathet Lao revolutionary troops, marching/planting booby traps.
The scenes contrast sharply with the flip side of each note. Nursing scene, a classroom & paper mill, pretty passive/aggressive in nature.

The back is quite nice, something that would be worth using on current notes.

Those Iraq notes are interesting... how do you tell the year/series? I don't speak/read Arabic or Kurdish.... Also begs the question, why are parts (most?) of them in English?
