I've had this oddity for years and thought some might enjoy seeing a "legitimate" piece of currency printed on 3-layer plywood. From Hadersfeld, Austria, and "printed" June 1st 1920. A bit cooler than a wooden nickel in my opinion!

Wow, I never knew about money printed on wood before!
Just when I thought nothing could surprise me. Great artifact, and worth a pretty bit of change too! :thumbsup:

Never heard of it but I find it interesting. When I read the title I thought of a huge sheet of plywood and then saw the pic and had to laugh.
