i dont think any1 under 21 on coin ppl has a 1930's banknote ^_^ eheh (an just cause 1939 is written on it it doesnt mean it was made in 1939 ...it means the rule or w/e that was passed that made this note legal to use as money...eg bahrain has 1964 on it banknotes doesnt mean they are from 1964 tongue.gif) , well i like it cause

1) its old
2) hard 2 get in midd east
3) the color reminds me of lime...which is my frnds fav color who is now in england studyin her a lvls an i wont see till winter break
4) will make a nice addition 2 my banknote collection
5) i like the basic design ...its simple
6) i like that its plain on 1 side an has color an a picture on the other side

You were around when the Soviets launched Sputnik. You don't qualify hysterical.gif

Yeah!!! I like this note, because of the accents on the O's. It is a very pretty note. I'd like it most of all, because I'm a little hungry. (Pun intended)

I must have this note because it's absolutely fascinating! The grain lines deserve a close inspection; I'd like to see how they are incorporated into that lovely portrait!

And also because I have not a single banknote to my name at the moment...

I need that banknote:

1- Because my iberian girls needs to speak a little bit of hungarian and meet new people for talking about girls things haha!!!

2-Because i have the 10 pengo 1936 and 100 pengo 1930, and that is one of my faults!

3-Because last summer went to Hungary and havent found any numismatic or banknote shop!!!

4- And because remember to me a hungarian friend that i met last summer there!!!!

smile.gif (thats all my reasons that i remember right now) haha

Hungaria - she represents Hungary. During that era they had lots of ladies on their paper money, see here:

Hungarian Beauty on Banknotes

Part of my collecting theme of attractive females on banknotes. Kind of makes pickled presidents dull when you look at representations of España, Marianne(France) Britannia(British £5 1957) and the lovelies on the Czech notes.

to bad america doesnt have money like that. maybe if we have mrs, clinton as pres she might put some good looking ladies on paper but i doubt it american money is very unattractive.

Actually that would be much more likely with Mr. Clinton as President, you are probably too young to remember.... hysterical.gif
