You a collector too?

Not in a big way but yeah, I usually collect from the places that I've actually visited. Hoping to visit Pak one day as well

I'm a collector as well! I got my hands on Indian currency via my brother's Indian friend at uni. Have the 10, 50 and 100 rs notes.

Even I do the same thing. I once went to money exchange shop to get all my currencies converted into British Pound as I had collected small notes of various countries upon my visits and stunned when the currency exchange agent gave me about £394 in return. That was like $600 dollars back then may be...

The best currency I liked so far was Swiss Francs in my opinion or to best of my memory as it is quite colourful similar to Australian currency you have shared above
