The JPY (Japanese Yen) is Japan’s currency, known for its stability. It uses coins (¥1, ¥5, ¥10, ¥50, ¥100, ¥500) and bills (¥1,000, ¥5,000, ¥10,000). The ¥5 coin has a hole in the center, symbolizing a view of the future, and the ¥10,000 note features Fukuzawa Yukichi. Learn more at the Bank of Japan.
The GBP (British Pound Sterling) is the oldest currency still in use, dating back over 1,200 years. Used in the UK, it features coins (1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p, £1, £2) and notes (£5, £10, £20, £50). Queen Elizabeth II appeared on every banknote, but new notes with King Charles III are now in circulation—see them at the Bank of England.
Japan has over 6,800 islands.
The pound is the only currency with a monarch’s face on every banknote—until King Charles III took over!
