NOTABLE NOTES

Foreword by Wendell Wolka

Seventy-two short stories and their historical background told by a collection of large-size US currency. The complex history of the beginnings of today’s bank notes simply laid out.

Peter enjoys the subject and has used his curiosity and intellect to weave together a wonderful set of stories, history lessons, and little known facts based on seventy-two "notable notes" which he has selected.

This well illustrated book is an easy read which will leave you knowing more than before you read it whether you are brand new to paper money or a veteran "rag picker." And that, after all, is what numismatics is all about: sharing information with others so that we can collectively build the foundation of knowledge for both present and future generations of collectors.
