**Most long time readers of this Coin & Paper Money chatting board will most likely know that Heron likes to collect German notes dated 1914 through 1918. However, because this is a Strassenbahn Tram issue Heron is reporting this neat little rascal. This note was included with a small collection recently acquired by el Heron. This is a great hobby and we collectors can tweak the 'rules' because we collectors are the folks that make the rules for our own collecting. All for fun and this is a great hobby for a lifetime!**
Attention: This note is not for sale.
