World Money

Check out the currency of countries around the world.



Find out the kind of currency we used when Malaysia was known as Malaya and still under British rule. So, now you know that images on currency can change with politics. An interesting way to learn about the history of your country.

Find out at Currency Converter for 164 Currencies, the value of our currency compared to that of another country.

According to CollectPaperMoney.com, collecting world paper money is a wonderful way to learn about geography, anthropology, economics, mathematics, politics, art, and even biology. Check out the collectors' tips if you think this is a fun way to learn.

You can also learn from Ron Wise. He has many useful links on his site like this one I found about Anatomy of a Banknote.
