I can analyzed for so long about history, society, politics and economy of my country, through its currencies, but it is not the intention of this post.
But I only want to give you some graphics details of our banknotes.
This is the detail I want to show you.
The Small animals, “teddy bear” style, or comic type…
When come to Argentina besides to knowing, visiting, eating and enjoying our country, will have some of these banknotes … so watch these animals well!
I invite you to share details of your banknotes and coins!
Very nice post @AdrianZ ! Banknotes is not such a common topic here, so I find it interesting that you brought it up.
Our argentine banknotes are now very colorful and although many people critisized them when they first came out, I think we got pretty used to them. It’s nice to not only remember our historical figures but also praise our fauna and flora.
I always find it interesting to learn about other people’s culture and history.
In my country (Nigeria) our currency are carrying pictures of our past leaders on side who make positive impact to the country and the other side carry our cultural diversity or flora and fauna.
Like on 5 Naira note, the front ( left on the picture below) is the first prime minister of Nigeia and right side is a picture of local dance troops from southern part of the country.
