Are there any countries that use notes for anything less than about $5?Off some quick thinking, the smallest notes by country are: US -- $1.00 Canada C$ 5 (about $5.00) Euro -- EUR 5 (about $6.50) Great Britain -- GBP 5 (about $7.50) Switzerland -- CHF 10 (about $11.00) Basically, the rest of the western world has adapted just fine to using notes for only values above $5.00 (or more). There's no reason that Americans can't do the same -- especially if the cost savings to printing all those notes is significant. |
