Right. So who's got a 1 lire note Todd can use? (that's actually a
little less...
consulting:
http://www.oanda.com/converter/classic?user=larrypieniazek
it turns out to be about 17 lira, or 123 Vietnamese Dong, or (here's big
money!) 1726 !! Angolan New Kwanzaas (pity the OLD kwanzaa...)
Those were the ones that I turned up as being over 1.0 in a quick
search. I think I'll take the Kwanzaa, please. (who ever heard of naming
your money after a holiday??)
Which reminds me, my mother once offered me either a nickel or 5
pennies. I was 4 at the time. I took the 5 pennies because it was
"obviously more money"... and yes I used words like obviously when I was
4. I have a 100 billion German Mark note somewhere. now THAT's a lot of
money. :-)
