    Anybody know of any good sites that have photos of foreign currency with each country having it's own page or something?

    I have an envelope full of foreign currency that I can't identify because I can't read the language and I'd like to find out what countries some of the notes are from.

    Thanks in advance.

    So you`re going to browse through all of the countries/banknotes until you find yours? That's not the most efficient approach.

    Make photos, post`em here, you`ll get them identified much faster.

    Another site: http://www.banknoteworld.com ... but again you would have to (roughly) know where a note is from.

    Then again, with "Latin" characters it is easy to know, for people who use such characters in everyday life, where a note is from. (Hint: If a note says "España" for example, go to your preferred search engine and enter "espana".) With other scripts it may be a little more difficult - in those cases, see Taxidermist's suggestion. :)
