siluska Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 I have this strange habit not to collect the normal things but the oddities. So the printing plates fascinate me. Of course, not to produce banknotes at home but... Does anybody else has this collection theme? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottishmoney Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Printing plates from non-Federal currency are legal to own - you see plates from 19th century obsoletes from time to time in auctions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, sounds right to me. I made an assumption on the content of the question that was incorrect--thanks! With that said maybe someone would like to share their legally owned plates here on Coin People. I know that some of American Bank Note Company assets were recently sold.
