    Fantastic them! Great to see all these notes and amazing from five continents. LOL King Charles Robert "...just looks like he's having a good hair day" - hilarious! Thanks Benjamin!

    I enjoyed this theme very much. In my undergraduate degree I minored in Fine Arts History and studying art as well as many archeological sites was fascinating.
    The Hungarian castle is Diósgyőr Castle which is a museum today but when I checked the website it is temporarily closed. Hungry and Romania are on my bucket list of places I want to visit. Thanks for another great video.

      I love checking these places out. I am lucky to have seen so much so far. Thanks for naming the castle.

    Hey Benjamin, you could also include the new series of Indian Rupees in this video. Surprisingly, 10rs,20rs, 50rs,100rs and 200rs all these notes have ruins on them. Pretty cool right?

    I waited with baited breath for one of my favorite series, Lebanon 1980's. The ruins on them are great history and the notes are brilliant colours. You could do a full video just on them. Angor Wat, Machu Picchu and Petra are on my bucket list too. The Nepal Everest series has statues on the obverse too. Ruins are everywhere.

      @davidwordsworth5584 I love all the notes you mentioned! That is an excellent series from Lebanon. I do enjoy doing whole videos on a single note. I have such a backlog of things to shoot for the channel. I want to get my desk cleaned off and then start pulling a ton of notes for individual shots... Thanks for adding to the theme list...

    The Parthenon 🏛️ has an extensive history and yes unfortunately the Ottoman army used it as a munition depot. During one of the wars with Venice it was blown up when the Venetians attacked the acropolis. Quite sad really but Lord Elgin famously collected the statues some hundred plus years later which for some reason is controversial today.
