There are some really beautiful notes there.
I changed it to “one of the most beautiful” to be more accurate.
makes sense. It’s very beautiful, but you can’t claim it’s the most beautiful without specifying a source that’s not “me”.
Cool. 1000 MVR is currently about $65 USD.
So for $130 plus the cost of framing, you can display both sides of the currency as art in your house.
€115
If I have enough money to vacation in the Maldives, this s a reasonable souvenir.
That is very beautiful
Beats any Euro banknote for sure.
Yeah ours are a bit dull, intentionally so with their landmarks. They are too big also could do with an all round 15% reduction.
Beats euro bills. But euro bills aren’t bad compared to most. They have color, artwork and growing sizes depending on their value.
My favorite European bill is the Swiss one though.
I kinda like the differing sizes as it makes identification easier.
Personally tho, I wish coinage was more common. Not cents, but whole values as I think they’re easy to carry for small denominations and pay with.
I hate having to stand at the counter trying to shove bills that crinkle and fold into my wallet while someone waits behind me.
I always shove my change in my pocket and deal with it later.
bills that crinkle
Never had that issue with euro bills tbh but i can see it happen with dollars and all those shitty bills
It’s the Euro coins that are nice, and even that only for those from some countries (one side of Euro coins varies depending on the country that issued them).
Australian money is pretty cool looking too.
Aussie coins more so than their banknotes IMO
Cool but ridiculous. The 50¢ piece is out of control with the size
You’re intimidated by its geometric majesty.
Look at it, though, it has a kangaroo on it and everything, and it’s fucking dodecagonal
looks it up
Over 3cm? That’s insane! 😄
It’s great though! I can tell exactly how much I have in my pockets without looking!
Why, because they tear a giant hole in your pocket with the weight so you know you have no coins in there? ;)
Japan made all their coins identifiable by touch as well. There’s a small and big one, then for the 4 with similar sizes 2 have milled edges and 2 have holes.

I have one of these to snort coke with.
That explains all the holes in your brain!

Nailed it
How wholesome :)
Who thinks currency is beautiful, and who’s taking the time to rank them?
Notaphilists do.
Fair.
I mean, if you look real close it’s actually the picture they’re looking at
Most beautiful of all, so far!
Just wait till big daddy T gets his face on the 1,000 USD bill.
The beauty then will be euge!
/s (also sorry for ruining an otherwise nice post but I couldn’t resist. Feel free to downvote this into oblivion)
Like this, you mean?
The beauty is difficult to behold.
MY EYES!!! IT BURNS!!! MAKE IT STOP!!
Canada could have had this…
We use pics of asshole PMs and the Queen instead.
Animal money is best money!
I don’t know… I kinda like the $5 bill with the astronaut on it.
Over a badass wolf? Put the astronaut on a coin nobody uses and move on.
Compromise: Wolf astronaut.
I do think a narwhal bill could be especially majestic
Canada should’ve done that
And this is making me think the US could do national parks on our money. We could have colorful geyser money, but nooooo we needed a slaver on that bill…
I think at this point in world history we should just stop idolizing people, whoever they are. I love the idea of having animals or cultural symbols in the notes (like canada’s leaf, france’s eiffel, US’s burguers etc)
Australia got glow in the dark dinosaurs.
Ed: wait no Canada got the glow in the dark dinosaurs and Australia got regular non glowing ones.
burguers
Made me re-read this whole comment in a thick French accent
Thank you for blessing me with these fond memories from my childhood 🥹
How else would the plebes know who their betters are?!
I see we’re stealing reddit bot posts now.
You’re welcome to post your own content.
So not a denial.
Not having been on Reddit for years, I missed it entirely. And it’s a good one, it brought some beauty into my scroll. OP has kindly allowed those of us not on the digital equivalent of a Superfund site to be able to enjoy it too.
Maybe what really should have been left on Reddit was the desire to personally police what others choose to post instead of simply appreciating it, or not, and then moving on.
A denial of what? The fact that damn near every single meme you see on Lemmy has been on Reddit at some point? Are we really having this discussion?
Seriously, go post your own content instead of complaining about other people’s. We could always use more content on Lemmy!
Dang, at least the person that mildly tried calling me out for sourcing from Facebook this morning was polite about it! 😅
I neither browse Reddit nor Facebook. This is literally my first time seeing these sea creature monies. 🤷
Exactly, it’s always going to be someone’s first time seeing something even if it’s been around forever. People that are annoyed should just move on. Animal money is awesome and I enjoy seeing it come up now and then. And I also enjoy the people that get happy for seeing it.
STFU, you’re going to make this a challenge for the orange one to put more of his face everywhere thinking it’s “beautiful”
A face so beautiful only a mother could love it
This pic reminds me of Capt Pike from the Star Trek pilot.
That character is from the initially-unaired pilot (“The Cage”), but that shot (and actor) is from “The Menagerie” - a 2-part episode from the first season that re-used scenes from The Cage as flashbacks.
They had Pike injured and in the wheelchair so they could use makeup and the “beep” communications to disguise the fact that the actor playing him was different in the newly-filmed scenes versus those from the flashbacks.
Thx, did not know that. Always nice to find out something new about Trek.
Why is the orange child rapist wearing earrings?
You could hold up a turd in that picture background and I’d still think it was a good picture
Could’ve just said “The 1000 rufiyaa banknote” on the title.
It’s right there on the note in latin characters (on the left picture, below the top-right “1000”).
No no, it’s 1000 monies of course
Rufiyaa, Rufiyaa, Ru-Fi-yaaaa!
Bangarang!
For some reason, I really like having the reverse side being in portrait orientation. I wish more notes were designed that way.
