I'm not trying to start a debate about relevance, but I can't recognize the faces on the 50 and 200 noted. An author and a "nature lover", I guess ?

On the 50 is Miguel de Cervantes (author of Don Quixote). On the 200 is Bertha von Suttner, the first woman to win a Nobel peace prize. I admit I had to look her up.
Oh, funny, I learned about her last week, in a biography of Alfred Nobel, but i only saw pictures of her young.
