The Stoty of A Rupee Note.

I was Printed in England in 1981 and i had a journey to Sri Lanka. It was a pleasant trip across oceans and mountains with my companions. When we landed at theKatunayake Airport, we were handed over to the treasury officers. We were  then taken to the Treasury in Colombo.We were placed in a huge safe. We were watched by a guard of armed police. After about one month we were taken to the jaffna Government Agent. There we were separated to be used to build a houpital. We were handed over to a rich contractor. He put us in the bank. There we were in the safe again. Then a few months later. When I came out, I saw I was given to a poor man. My value was equal to one pound of Austeralian butter. But now we are equal to one eigth pound of Sri Lankan local buter. At last the Minister of Finance ordered us to be destroyed and ordered the use of two rupee coins only. We arestill waiting to be burnt to ashes.
