I don't know what it looks like, but I've thought Rupees had a really cool name. Rupees!

When I clicked this thread I thought it said 'sexist currency' and would be a feminist rant about not having enough women on coins or whatever. (Certainly not true, at least here in the UK with the Queen on every note).

I liked pesetas, the whole in the middle of one of the coins just amused me to no end; I tried eating them when I was little as they reminded me of Polos. Best name has to be kopeks, I think.

I really like the Euro, simply because of the cool Euro symbol.

But there is something about the American dollar I like. Probably the smell. I have ot admit, I find the smell of US currency to be sexy.

For outright appearence, any gold currency.

A doctor friend of mine performed a medical procedure for some wealthy Swiss gold trader and got this super-sexy South African gold cougaran from the guy

Roubles are the sexiest. The name just rolls off the tongue, evoking long nights of vodka drinking, sessions in the banya, and Russian women purchased over the Internet.

Most ten pound notes, yeah.

And I dunno which is the sexiest, but, in the words of Sway - "The pound is stronger than the dollar... holla"

Sexiest country in my opinion has to be Japan.
I think Japanese women are so beautiful.

きれいですね^_^

But are they money?

heh, I'll have to beg for forgiveness on that one for reading the topic wrong. In my defence I am dyslexic and thought it said country not currency :).

I'll still go for Yen on principle though just because I'm stubborn.

The former Dutch currency, the guilder, looks downright weird (http://www.traveller.org/currency/netherlands-10b.jpg).

Mushrooms are legal there, right? Maybe that explains it.

I have a (I think...) 50 Rupee note at home, its really crappy quality with very few anti-counterfeiting devices, on the one side is a picture of Ghandi, and on the other side is the Indian coat of arms (three dog/lion things standing on a pillar).

Its called microprint... you get it all over all sorts of currency.

I read it as sexist currency too. :)

I'll vote for our money. It's made of plastic and the various denominations are different colours & sizes.

pfft.. Even New Zealand has that.


I have enjoyed the plastic money since the change over several years ago. I can't properly imagine paper money anymore. Money that can go through the wash is great.

They're called Kroner, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwegian_krone) and are very unsexy.
