Name Your Favorite Money!
Cartoon Law III
Any body passing through solid matter will leave a perforation conforming to its perimeter. Also called the silhouette of passage, this phenomenon is the speciality of victims of directed-pressure explosions and of reckless cowards who are so eager to escape that they exit directly through the wall of a house, leaving a cookie-cutout-perfect hole. The threat of skunks or matrimony often catalyzes this reaction.

Well, short of barrels full, I prefer almost any paper money besides the US type (BOOORRRIIINNNNGGGGGG!!!!
). Most of the European paper money has class. But I have a question, what happens to all the unique monies when the Euro is commonly accepted?
I especially like British coins (anyone that has a Farthing coin has got the concept down!). Crowns were always my favorite. A coin for the Common Man with some heft! Here in the US we can't seem to get our sh!t together with our coins. Dollar coins the same size as quarters for gawd's sake! (Oh I know, let's make them sort of gold colored. Yeah, that's the ticket! Stupid idea if they're the same size as a quarter, idiots!). Although I can't complain too much, right after they came out I got about three of them as change for a dollar.

I've learned so much about all of you from reading this short thread
I actually prefer 'found' money of any denomination. It just has such a fun feel to it, and money is otherwise boring to me.
I especially like finding money in pockets, the risk making the money somehow more interesting than usual

Why craig? Are you an internet whizz-kid gazillionaire who made his fantastic wealth from building websites for the catholic church and the hardcore porn industry?

My favourite is my own money : Polish Zloty, however I like also French Francs.
I have also huge collection of old money from communistic period : Polish, Hungarian, German (DDR), Czechoslovakian (sorry for spelling mistakes), Jugoslavian, Romanian, Bulgarian, and finally Soviet Union - it is so funny to look on these red rubles.
