 Did you know, that the famous Lady Godiva was parading naked through the streets as a means of staging a tax protest?
On a Canadian bank note issued in 1964, Queen Elizabeth II's hair held a depiction of a devil's face. Eventually, the money had to be withdrawn from circulation as the public refused to handle the notes. Early Italian bankers used to conduct their business on street benches. Hence, the word bank comes for the Italian word "banca" meaning bench. | ||
