Not all money is as cool and sleek-looking as American money. I mean have you ever been to Canada? (Just kidding… sort of).
What’s even stranger than American or Canada money are these 25 crazily designed currencies from around the world. I’d love to know who thought it would be a good idea to mint these. Just wait until you see #13.

Wow I seriously can’t believe Benin would be a marijuana leaf on their money. I would have loved to be a fly on the wall for the meeting where that was decided.
Who Was Behind These 25 Currency Designs? I Think Someone Is Getting Fired.
