Fantasy notes occupy a peculiar corner of the hobby — neither propaganda nor genuine emergency currency, but produced for a market that buys them as art objects or conversation pieces. This one was designed by Franck Medina, a French graphic artist with a body of work in speculative and fictional currency design. The polymer substrate gives it a tactile authenticity that paper fantasies lack, which is presumably the point.
