[QUOTE="klein, post: 904348, member: 23950"] Do you know that Italy took off a zero from it's currency years before the Euro became their currency. $1.00 was well worth over $1000 Lira back then. It was too expensive for Italy to even make coins, so if you went to a bar back then, you needed to buy Juke Box tokens or pool table tokens for example. They had no coins to operate any vending machines ! And no technology, yet, for those machines to take paper money. [/QUOTE]
