BOVINE BANKING

Not numismatic, but amusing nevertheless, is a this February 6
report from Reuters on an incident in northern Germany:

"A Friesian cow took a detour from a wedding where she
was meant to be a guest of honor, wandering into a German
bank where she was caught on security cameras sidling up
to the tellers.

Top German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung on
Friday published four robber-style photos of the cow, named
Paula, strolling into the Sparkasse savings bank in Wunstorf,
a small rural town in northern Germany.

"The cow entered, made an elegant turn and walked right
back out," a bank spokeswoman said. "It was an
extraordinary experience, but it was over very quickly."

For the full article (and the learn why the cow was invited
to a wedding in the first place), see:
