◆ Collection <br> <br> Biking In travel around the world, banknotes were collected locally. Keep new tags and conditions as good as possible. In countries where prices are cheap, bills were also collected by type. If it is a country with high prices it will not work so at least one is normal. After finishing the trip, I arranged the banknotes collected in this way.

Various bank notes in many countries.



I will iron the wrinkled paper money.

I wanted to decorate it in the guest house that I supposed to open someday so I should have collected several pieces for storage and viewing. For the guest house to make the world familiar, I will make something else again.



If the denomination that cuts off the currency figures or the king used for portrait changes, bills change. Even if inflation goes on, new notes will come out, and the bills introduced this time seem to have changed a lot, and I also want to go abroad. It has its own characteristics unique to that country (region) and it is also good for souvenirs. Please pay attention to local currency notes (bills) and curing (coins) at the destination.
