Bank Note Portraits Photo Gallery by C.M. Kwan at pbase.com

Bank Note Portraits

Everything has its own story and bank notes have not exception.
After several trips to different countries,
I found all their bank notes were printed with beautiful portraits.
And behind each portrait, it has a story to tell.

I hope you enjoy visiting this gallery and reading the stories of the people.

This is a very clever gallery. The photos are exceptional. I love the gold frame, it adds some class, making these currency faces look more like the fine arts! V
