The coolest bank notes ever.

This thread is about money. The aesthetics of money, to be specific. Canada is notorious for being accused by Americans as having "Monopoly money" because our bills have more colours than a lovely shade of grey. Well, look at the new notes:

Just let it sink in for a bit. Look at it. It's AMAZING.

And it got me wondering... What do you think is the coolest looking money?

 

Yeah I saw that on the new today. I think it looks awesome!

 

fuckin eh .bubba...new browns in town

 

You know, they say money doesn't grow on trees. But what if they made leaves money? Then money would look naturally beautiful AND it WOOD grow on trees!

Here's a bunch of tenners-



No need for cash dispensers or plastic cards, just pick em up off the ground in the autumn!

 

hundreds are always in great shape

they should have rolled out the fives and tens first

 

Hundred dollar bills are counter fitted much more than any other Canadian currency. That's why a lot of places don't accept them.

 

i never said it was monopoly money, but I did say it was great for use in strip clubs. nothing like throwing a dollar at the stripper

 

most places that don't accept 100s just can't make that much change...

 

by maybe 2%

whoopee

fake fives and twenties are all Ive ever come across

 

Sorry about that typo! Auto-correct can be a bitch. Fake fives and twenties are common, but not as much as hundred dollars ones used to be a few decades ago. It's just that they still have that reputation.

 

I think I'm going to counterfeit some one's...in the US, they'll never check.

 

Just cuz they look so nice any Canadians are welcome ( or anyone else) to send me a sample of your new banknote preferably the highest value

 

They are actually developing new high tech security features for the $1 and $2 coins here

they would probably cost you $2 each to make...

 

These days 'merkins would be well advised to refrain from making disparaging comments about other country's currencies as the spending power of out oh-so-venerated greenback is in a free fall that's being helped along by a series of economic and monetary policies that make sense only if you assume that our government is deliberately trying to destroy the economy and impoverish its own people.

Our currency looks like something available at "Toys 'r' Us"

 

I remember Malaysia having some neat looking notes.
