Words from StupidKrap...
The piece is a version of the Australian $100 bill customised in the Lister spirit to the theme of celebrity underworld figure Mark 'Chopper' Read. Chopper and Anthony Lister shared a brief friendship during which Lister painted several portaits of the Bad-Guy. This lasted until a money-lending incident went dangerously awry, ending with Chopper $100 in Lister's debt. Hence, the $100 Lister Chopper currency - it's payback time
