10 Most Expensive Currencies in The World in 2017

10. Canadian Dollar (CAD)

1 CAD = 0.75 USD

The Canadian dollar is recognizable by two major characteristics: the amalgam of different hues which the notes take on, and the traditional names of the one and two dollar coins: the “loonie”, which takes its name from the duck-like loon, and the “toonie”, which gets its title by combining “loonie” and the number two. All the coins, including these and the quarter, dime, nickel and cent, all have a picture of the current (and the beloved) British monarch on one side. The Canadian twenty-dollar bill also bears a big image of Queen Elizabeth II, accompanied by a smaller copy on the strip in a fashion similar to the rest of Canadian banknotes. According to the 2011 series of bills which will continue till 2018, the dollar bills have pictures of Wilfrid Laurier ($5). John A. Macdonald ($10), William Lyon Mackenzie King ($50), Robert Borden ($100) and, of course, as previously mentioned, the Queen.
