I've got some Cuban tourist pesos. About £1 worth. Or the equivalent of a packet of Cuban cigarettes.
I also have 30 euros I put in a safe place. Can't quite remember where, which is annoying as I am in Berlin next week.

 

[Dave5N]

You shouldn't smoke cuban cigarettes. They will make you die.

US dollars, South African Rand, Singapore dollars, Indonesian Rupiah, Danish Kroner, Philippine pesos, Korean won, Kenyan Shiligi, Hong Kong dollars, Vietnamese dong, Chinese Yuan and Belgium francs. There are others but I've not got them with me at the moment!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have got a 1,000 Ugandan Shillings somewhere and theres probably a couple of grand more kicking round with family members that I sent back.

£1= 3,400UGS

I have some Malaysian Ringgits somewhere. Gawd knows how much they're worth these days?! I believe there is 10c (US) somewhere in the bottom of my rucksack from my last trip there.

Also have some Fronch froncs/centimes, but they're not much use these days, are they?

I have some Malaysian Ringgits somewhere.

One Ringgit = 15p

I have about £7.50 here, does that count as foreign currency?

The big old 5p coins (before they became the big new 5p coins, and before they became the small new 5p coins ) were the exact size of a German deutschmark; great for using in fag machines, drink machines, phone boxes etc. and all for a fraction of the price.

I have some old Azerbaijan manat. Useless now as they knocked off about 4 of the zeros a few years ago as it was getting ridiculous.

 

[Dayvo]

I have half a AUS $50 note somewhere!
Being polymer banknotes, I thought they were indestructible; they're waterproof, you can't tear them or screw them up.
Unfortunately they're not fireproof!
