Because I've traveled quite a bit, I've gotten interested in various kinds of money, the symbolism of what's on the bills and coins, and the "back story" of the currency. Your observation about the filthiness of the smaller denomination bills as opposed to the larger is interesting...I have some pretty ratty $1.00 bills in my wallet, but they're not nearly as disgusting as your smaller Rupiah bills seem to be. Perhaps it's a reflection of overall hygiene in the US and Indonesia (I know you've written about the levels of smoking and bad breath in Palembang before). Thanks for this new insight into life in another part of the world.Bilbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14213505386288233192noreply@blogger.com
