Money is virtual. We all know. This is not virtual, but fictional money. Mark Brooks created this design for a banknote form the Galactic Empire (Star Wars). He says about his work in the context of Star Wars fan art:

There’s a lot of artwork out there most as posters, lithographs or prints so I wanted to do something different. While watching The original Star Wars I realized that talk of money is thrown around quite a lot but you never actually see it (other than Han flipping the bartender a coin after shooting Greedo). I thought it would be cool to design a piece of Imperial currency as I saw it. I designed it mostly after American money but used some European influences as well.

What is more to say? It’s simply awesome.
