Alphabetical List Of Currencies Used By Different Countries In The World

According to scholars, Money has been a part of human history for almost 3,000 years. From the origins of bartering to modern money, this is how the system has evolved.

At the dawn of humanity, bartering was used in lieu of money to buy goods. As early man began to rear domestic livestock, one of the earliest forms of barter included cattle, sheep, as well as vegetables and grain.

The first known currency was created by King Alyattes in Lydia, now part of Turkey, in 600BC. The first coin ever minted features a roaring lion. Coins then evolved into bank notes around 1661 AD. The first credit card was introduced in 1946.
