 * Support as nominator – Godot13 (talk) 21:55, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Support - very useful for his biography — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:12, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Back side is needed. Brandmeistertalk  09:37, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I should have mentioned- reverse is not shown because the note was mounted on card (there is nothing to see on the reverse).--Godot13 (talk) 15:46, 22 September 2014 (UTC)


 * It would be useful to include the obverse of the genuine bill in the article, especially given that Godot scanned both at the same resolution making direct comparison quite easy (currently there is a scan of it with the reverse included available). 24.222.214.125 (talk) 19:04, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I agree. I was trying to find an image of a note in the same basic condition, but barring that, i'll put something in the article today...-Godot13 (talk) 20:23, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Genuine note added to the article and inserted above. Matched for seal type and signature combination. NOT part of the nomination.--Godot13 (talk) 05:57, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Much improved. Kudos for going the extra mile in matching the seal and signature. 24.222.214.125 (talk) 06:53, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Support I have not been commenting on any of the other bank note images but this one intrigued me --Muhammad (talk) 05:49, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
