    BERLIN'S
    FIRST ELECTRIC TROLLEY!
    1882
    This is a century old Berlin Street Car Co. 2 Mark banknote that was spendable as a ticket on rail travel aboard the Berlin Streetcar in 1922!!
    This bill was not only utilitarian (being worth money and a ride) but
    collectible
    - even then - due to its beautiful engraving and image of the
    FIRST ELECTRIC STREET CAR in CHARLOTTENBERG in 1882.
    So it was
    already
    nostalgic for an earlier time!
    The ornate red front has the denomination, a fancy embossed seal surmounted by "Good For 2 Marks" and the legendary Berlin Bear.
    Crisp uncirculated condition or near to it (may have 1-2 light handling folds in which case it was probably used by someone a century ago!!)!
    This nifty 2 Mark bill combines railroad history, financial history, Berlin history, great nostalgic artwork and bonafide antiquity! Simply irresistable! Retail Value in Uncriculated . Buy Now for .99!
