What a cool gal she must have been - feisty!Thanks. My favorite is a 1911 Indian Head $5 Gold Half Eagle coin.
The Continental was a bit ratty and faded when I got it. I use it as the bookmark for the current read paperback I keep in the car (Thinner right now). It makes for a good conversational piece. I’m keeping an eye out for a Continental Note printed by Benjamin Franklin (at a reasonable price) for my collection.
I also have a Cold War era Czechoslovakia bill as a souvenir. During the 70’s my father’s aunt in her 80’s would travel by train in a cold month once a year into what was then Czechoslovakia to visit her relatives. We would all pitch in, and while in Europe she would convert the cash to Czechoslovakian money and sew it into the lining of the outercoat she wore. On one trip soldiers grabbed her and were going to take her off the train with AK-47’s drawn. She started screaming and making a scene, and told them they will have to shoot her before she would go with them. She put her body up against the muzzle of an AK and demanded they shoot. After the soldiers had a little confab they decided she was crazy and wasn’t worth the bother of an international incident, and let her go.
