Cash Money

The paper money here is SO beautiful! Credit is not very prevalent here so we look at it all the time. Both the EURO and CHF are colorful and have interesting stories to tell. If you have a few minutes visit these websites – it’s well worth the time.

CHF (Swiss Franc): An interesting fact - CHF has no penny equivalent. If you hover over the notes it will show you what is on the back of each. Also click on The Portrayed Personalities to get some history about each person represented. The Swiss plan to update their money in 2010 – here are the winning entries

EURO: All the EURO notes are the same for each country, but the coins are different. It will show you a picture of each EURO note and tell you a little bit about it. If you click on EURO Coins you can see pictures of those as well.
