Did you know that European bank notes were a TCG ?
On every bank note in europe, there is a signature from the head of the Central European Bank at the time said bank note was edited. For instance, I currently have 2 Mario Draghi bank notes, and 1 Christine Lagarde.
I am looking to trade a Mario Draghi for a Jean-Claude Trichet or a Willem F. Duisenberg, hit me up.
