Funny Money

Last weekend I have been to Odessa. Since my last visit a year ago Odessa had a major face lift. I took many photos but as it will take some time to sort them I will post them later.
On the small flee market in Odessa I found fake hrivnya bills with portraits of Ukraine's politicians. I took my "favourites": Julia, Yushenko and Chernovetsky -the mayor of Kiev. UAH 200 and UAH 100 are of great quality and if it would not be for a souvenir sign on them they could be mistake for real ones. The note of Kiev mayor is denominated UAH 1,70 which is price of one metro ticket.

I also saw a USD 100 bill with Obama. This bill is of a good quality so to avoid any possible confusion next to being labled on the face "souvenir" in russian, on the back of the bill there is also a note in russian "not to be used for payments".
