Steve,you are an addict - in British Commonwealth banknotes,that is! We don't see many notes from either Belize or the Cayman Islands over here.We see some of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank's $5 notes issued for various islands,especially St. Lucia,St. Kitts,& Antigua & Barbuda.

Aidan.

Steve,don't forget that the Queen is a very short woman - only around 5'4'' or so.I am around the 5'9'' mark,which is about average height.

I prefer to collect any British Commonwealth banknotes,especially ones depicting our Queen.

Aidan.
