I think most of these coins (and those of many countries) are made in this building, just a mile or two down the road. When I was young I used to think that the window was hanging and ready to drop (if you look at a certain angle).

Posted - 09/29/2007 : 23:04:03 Euro, one of these things just doesn't belong. All of the other currencies are interesting etymologically.
I will elaborate.
Dollar from Taler, short for Joachimstaler, (people from the city where they were first minted?)
OK, yen is a form of yuan, but I have no history for yuan.
Peso pensum, something weighed
Money "Moneta, epithet of Juno, temple of Juno of Rome where money was coined."

I love it when I go in Italy, Spain, Belgium and Malta soon. It's so good to not have your bank taking fees for the change when you pay with your Visa or at the cash machine.

I vote Canadian Tire Money to win.
If you have some of the first issue, a $5.00 bill was worth $500.00 about fifteen years ago.
It was the only non-bank issued legal tender currency in North America the last time I looked, and surely the only one with a fictional portrait (Sandy McTire).
There is even a restaurant in town that will take it at par.
I vote the Canadian Currency to go away, it's worth the same as American money right now (it has always looked like Monopoly money to them), but an Ipod is $399.00 in Canada and only $349.00 in the US, it's Loonie.
LOL! What Canadian doesn't have some of that in their glove compartment....
Canadian quarters piss me off because I was trying to collect some of the specialty ones back in the day but there's way to many different ones now.

I remember once trying to pay for a can of pop with Monopoly money as a joke. It didn't work.
