paper money messages: a pictorial perspective - volume 1 (global)

Paper Money Messages, a Pictorial Perspective (Vol 1) is a result of Jeffrey J. Wing’s journeys over the past twenty years to more than thirty countries, including particularly those to some of the world’s poorest countries. Jeffrey’s interest in paper money originated from these diverse travels when he began to collect local currencies. Experiencing a country that had faced economic and political turmoil made him reevaluate the true value of paper money. In addition, he recognized that the imagery on a nation’s currency was often a significant reflection of that nation’s history and value system. More and more, Jeffrey realized that a book about paper money would extend beyond collectors, to include persons who appreciate the money’s colorful imagery and/or to students of history.
