Currency List This is a list of the countries and their currency that issue coins and stamps. The list will be useful for students and new collectors to identify their coins and stamps. In case of European Union, both the Euro and its old currency have been given, so that new collectors know about the earlier stamps/coins of the country, before the European Union was formed. Any corrections/suggestions are welcome. Mail your comments to bharatcoins@gmail.com
