Chinese Yuan, American Dollar, Japanese Yen, European Euro, British Pound... What's the name of your monetary unit? What can you buy with one unit? In China, you can buy one bottle of mineral water with 1 Yuan; if you have 1 yuan, you can take a bus [big city 2 yuan or more].

    • Huh? Your monetary unit is Peso too?

      Yeah, I heard that, Peso is an old monetary unit!

      With a Peso you can buy a Peso Coin, it means?

      Thanks for your useful message, Martin!

    • It's a joke ''With a Peso you can buy a Peso Coin''´.

    • Rofl, I got your joke!

    • And with 15 Pesos you can buy a Watter mineral Bottel (600 ml).

    • It's like Coco Cola bottle! But I doubt if it really contain 600ml mineral water. [thin bottle it is!]

  • Very interesting topic. Sima has answered about Rial. She's true! Hardly, you can find one Rial coin here; just in people's collection of coins it might be found. We can buy nothing with it! Hmm! I had never thought about this topic! It's interesting that we can buy nothing with one Iranian Rial!

    Thanks for the topic.

    • Thanks for your comment and compliment, Zahra!

      I saw many zero in the note of your rial too~ giggling!

  • Wow, the font of the number is big and clear, I like it!

    1 Euro = ? Cents

    Thanks for your comment, constantine.

    • So you are from Iran?

      you need 5000 rial to buy a bottle of mineral water? wow! So how is the denomination in Rial?

      Thanks for your comment, Jep!

  • Great question! 

    In Canada the one dollar coin is called the loonie! You can't buy much with a loonie because you have to pay tax, which will bring you up to around $1.15 (depending on which province you live in). We have "dollar stores" all over the place, though most items now cost $1.25 or $2.00. You can buy lots of junk at this price these days. You can buy a Hot Wheels toy car for about a dollar. You can probably buy a popsicle, too. You'll need at least $2.00 for a tea or coffee.

    Note: "to save some coin" = to save some money
