~~~ that was previously unknown to collectors and, then, within a few short hours... examples of each denomination was on its way to my doorstep as a gift, of which, I shortly returned one full set of the plaques to Belgium... and it was an honor to do so. Events such as that one, and a few others that involved the full cooperation and willingness of some very famous casino owners, mayors of small and big towns and and families of world-famous gamblers to help a simple collector as myself to complete his collection of many one-of-a-pieces of the highest denominations known, is not easy to forget. It's an enjoyable hobby, for sure... 😀
