While most of the girls are collecting shoes,bags,make ups, etc., this is what I have been collecting maybe because I am not too interested with those things (duh). Well, to be fair and honest, just like any other girls I also like shoes, bags and a little bit of make up and of course clothes ( I just can't afford to buy them most of the time,lol) but different currencies interests me a lot. So here are some of what I have in my wallet.
Philippine Peso
Let's start with this old Five Peso. If you happen to be a Filipino, this will look familiar to you. The Philippine five-peso bill (₱5) is a denomination of Philippine currency. Philippine president Emilio Aguinaldo is featured on the front side of the bill, while the Declaration of the Philippine Independence is featured on the reverse side. This banknote was circulated until the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas stopped printing this denomination in 1995 and was replaced by coins.
Papua New Guinean Kina
This is Two Kina. Kina is the currency of Papua New Guinea. It is divided into 100 toea. The kina was introduced on 19 April 1975, replacing the Australian dollar at par. The name kina is derived from Kuanua of the Tolai region, referring to a callable pearl shell used widely for trading in both the Coastal and Highlands areas of the country.
Saudi Riyal
This is one riyal. The Saudi riyal (Arabic: ريال Riyāl, ISO 4217 code: SAR) is the currency of Saudi Arabia. It is abbreviated as ر.س or SR (Saudi Riyal). It is subdivided into 100 Halalas (Arabic: هللة Halalah). The Saudi Qirsh is 5 Halalas.

Indonesian Rupiah
The rupiah (Rp) is the official currency of Indonesia. Issued and controlled by theBank of Indonesia, the ISO 4217 currency code for the Indonesian rupiah is IDR. Informally, Indonesians also use the word "perak" ('silver' in Indonesian) in referring to rupiah. The rupiah is subdivided into 100 sen, although inflation has rendered all coins and banknotes denominated in sen obsolete. The Riau islands and the Indonesian half of New Guinea (Irian Barat) had their own variants of the rupiah, but these were subsumed into the national rupiah in 1964 and 1971 respectively (see Riau rupiah and West New Guinea rupiah).
Thai Baht
This is 50 Baht. The baht (Thai: บาท, sign: ฿; code: THB) is the currency of Thailand. It is subdivided into 100 satang (สตางค์). The issuance of currency is the responsibility of the Bank of Thailand.

Banknotes in circulation come in denominations of ₹5, ₹10, ₹20, ₹50, ₹100, ₹500 and ₹1000.
