Title: Foreign Money Collection For Kids School Project Post by: jasinlee on January 09, 2013, 05:05:43 AM My kids are working on a project about foreign currencies. I want my kids to have the most impressive collection of foreign money. I am looking for something from every country that has paper cash. But the lowest denomination possible since I dont feel like paying an arm and a leg for each. As I get pms and replies I will update the OP with countries I have covered. I will pay the value of that currency plus stamp cost to send it to me. This is to help a couple of little girls out to have the coolest project. If anyone has a spent (empty) physical bitcoin that would be cool, it would be the only coin in the collection so it would stand out and we could get attention for btc when it goes on display.
1. USA covered already from my wallet 2.? Title: Re: Foreign Money Collection For Kids School Project Post by: John (John K.) on January 09, 2013, 05:28:39 AM Hint: Visit a moneychanger. ;)

When is the project due?Title: Re: Foreign Money Collection For Kids School Project Post by: jasinlee on January 09, 2013, 05:34:28 AM Florida, great place for lots of things.

There is an airport here, but as some may guess americans do not always do things that make sense....like put up 1 speed limit sign in KPH outside the airport, then none after that....and nothing beside the airport but car rental shops and open fields with cows.....

That aside, I could send you some Malaysian bills if needed - the postage cost would certainly be much more than the bill itself! Title: Re: Foreign Money Collection For Kids School Project Post by: jasinlee on January 09, 2013, 05:46:30 AM Cool, will just want 3 bills one per kid so they can then use to make a collection after the project. (My son may feel left out so going to do everything in 3s I think.)

But thanks for the offer.
