Subvert The Familiar

2010

With this project I aimed to make people question value, with a £10 note made from £10 worth of silver.

Money is simply a promise and during the great depression money was worth more as paper then the value printed on it. This £10 note is made from a piece of silver worth £10.80 is 0.3mm thin and is etched double sided, it resembles a note perfectly the only difference is this note is worth its real value, therefore does this make it worth more?
