Amazing! submitted by jgetty on February 26, 2021, 10:54am Fascinating book with excellent photos of all the different kinds of things that were and are used for "money". All the pages are detailed with easily understood descriptions and explanations, and beautiful, interesting photos. Excellent book, and I highly recommend! All of the EYEWITNESS books are excellent for lots of photos and easy summaries and explanations of very interesting subjects.
