tealeaf Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 My son has recently joined his high school fencing team. Does anyone have any notes to share depicting fencing or swordsmanship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave M Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 I can't spot any fencing on banknotes, and most of the swords appear at the side of an allegorical figure, generally as a "don't mess with us" statement. There are a couple Confederate States notes where someone is actually using a sword for its intended purpose, though. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 Can't think of any offhand.... perhaps some German notgeld issues depict fencing, but it'd be a difficult search I think. Good luck, and post any you may find here - I'd be interested in seeing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMMM Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 I also do not know of any with fencing. There are a few with swords, but not fencing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boydle Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 I have over 6000 German Notgeld but i can not think of any with fencing, I have plenty with swords however as emblems as well as being used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiho Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Being the suspicious New Yorker that I am I saw the title of this thread (Fencing Notes) and thought someone was trying to sell stolen property. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
