For me Currency is much more attractive and colorful, coins just don't have the color Currency has, coins are just so metallic and cold to the touch I just cant warm up to them. The Bill Collector

Yes,I live in Germany,but I don't collect germans bills or coins,I don't know why,but I don't) But I agree,there are very nice germans currency! I collect US coins'n'bills mostly until 1964,and a bit of Russian coins until 1957,and a bit of British gold sovereigns=)

Quote: maybe you can tell me,how to check the bill for 100% One thing about those fibers is that they are both under and over the fabric of the note. I use a small microscope to view them and I expect to see that the linen fibers go over them and vice versa. Those fibers also have thickness so while viewing them I can shine a light horizontally over the note and they actually cast a small shadow.

Hi Lex, It looks good to me and if it's a fake them mine may be also. Check the fibers like Nickelman said, if there in the paper I would say it's real. The Bill Collector
