Gauss on German Currency... Images...

[Subbarao Kambhampati <rao@asu.edu>]

Here are links to pictures of German 10 mark note that has Gauss and (get 
this) a plot of Gaussian distribution
  on it. I understand that this will be out of circulation starting Jan 
1st, when the Euros with their non-descript building images become the 
default currency in Germany and most of rest of europe.

the second one is the detail of Gaussian distribution on the 10mark note)


All this comes from the site

http://www.geocities.com/mathstamps/

which has links to pictures of mathematicians on stamps (Gauss is the only 
one to have made it on currency).
