The Eurasian Eura is the currency of the United Kingdom of Eurasia, along with the Eurasian Empire, which comprises the UK and all of its colonies. The slang term for the eura is the the squig, in reference to the somewhat unique and bizarre symbol utilised for the currency. Prior to the 1992 inception of the Eura, the United Kingdom utilised the British pound sterling, but Prime Minister Alexander Saakashvili launched the creation of the Eura.
Denominations
The eura comes in the following denominations:
- 1 (grey)
- 2 (red)
- 5 (white)
- 10 (silver)
- 20 (indigo)
- 50 (yellow/gold)
- 100 (violet)
- 500 (tan/khaki)
- 1000 (pale rose)
Characteristics of the eura
The Eura is printed on a polymer-PETX composite skin, so that the money cannot be ripped, scrunched or bent. This gives the illusion that the paper is printed on actual plastic. The money will still show signs of disfiguration, but tests have shown that polymer-based money like the douro stands up to wear and tear for a lot longer period than other forms of currency. Security features for the eura include: intaglio, offset and letterpress printing, latent images, micro-printing, intricate background patterns, optically variable shadow images, optically variable ink, diffraction grating, transparent windows, and a variety of security threads. Each bill also has a braille strip for usage by the blind.
