Do you have foreign currencies (only notes)?

Post by Olivier »

Hello everybody!

I'm back, a few months after. :-)
Hope you're alright.

I wonder, if you have foreign currencies... which ones? :-)

I have CAD, euros and USDdollars.
+ many coins from everywhere...

First of all: Welcome back, Olivier! :)

I have lots of strange currencies, but from most of them I only have one coin
or only a few coins. I still have most of the pre-euro currencies, and further I
have a few USdollars, Swiss francs, Norwegian, Swedish and Czech crowns,
Cypriotic pounds, and many more, but I can't remember them all...

Welcome back Olivier. :)

Well, I only have a French 10 francs coin and a British 1 penny coin. :wink: I have got those from local shops as euro coins.
Sometimes I have got Swedish or Norwegian crowns, when I have been traveling in those countries, but I haven´t kept any coins or notes.

Hi Olivier !

Apart from the Euro, I also have a few English Pound-notes lying around from my last Uk-trip, also a little bundle of US-dollars (which I`ll enter into the Where`s George next time I travel to the US) and - most important :
A nice bundle of Canadian Dollars :mrgreen: We (= my wife and me) travel rather frequently to Canada so we just re-use what`s left form last time :D . By the way : is there also a EBT/WheresGeorge-site for the Canadian Dollar ???

Hello Olivier,
nice that you are back! Well, from my many trips I have many notes: Hongkong-$, Indonesian Rupiah, Thai Baht, UAE-Dirhams, Jordanian stuff and Malaysian Ringgit.
