Oh, I full well know what non-US currency looks like. On top of current
coin/paper, I have a file of notes my father collected during his time in
the Navy in WWII. And a few from when my grandfather was in the Army in WWI.

A Deutschmark from 1914 is really big--and oh, the engraving!

Yes, but still much more attractive than the US funny money!

How is that Canon S900 treating you? I'm going to be looking into the
Canon's in the next few months... was going to get a 2200, but I'm holding
out for a bit.

Thanks,

Jon
