United States (USD) - notes

There is nothing special about USD. It is a common currency where many can easily get hold of this currency. It is precious to me especially when you don't have money and landed with some USD for the first time.

Here is another coin that ended up with me. Guess my grandfather kept them and passed it down. I do wonder if it is real money that the people used it for trading in the past. I always wanted to throw them away as I don't know is it worth keeping them. It may be fake money. Nevertheless I retained it as a memory that it is from my grandfather.
