Today’s Banknote of the Day is not a banknote at all. If you have never thought about it, there are a vast number of currencies around the world and with that a vast number of names (units of denomination). Many units of denomination are country specific such as the ‘Afghani’ used in Afghanistan, while others such as the ‘Dollar’ overlap countries such as the United States, Zimbabwe, Singapore, etc. Some are widely used, and others not-so-much. For your viewing pleasure and to provoke a bit of thought, I have listed (below) the units of currency used in the world. It may surprise you of how many there are. EMJOY!!!
