On A Different Note


Is there an international agreement about the size and shape of money?

Most countries’ paper money is rectangular and roughly the same size.
It fits in a standard wallet.
If it doesn’t, it’s because of the quantity of notes not the size.


Wouldn’t it be refreshing to pay for something with triangular, oval, or octagonal money?
Even square money would be a change.

The wallet industry would probably enjoy a bit of a financial boom, or at the very least it would put a little more creativity into wallet makers’ lives.

note: what came first: money, wallets, or pockets?
