First time I’ve laughed at a sponsored ad
That shark outfit tho
_Hakase has joined the chat, liked the video, subscribed the channel._
Thanks to all!
Ryan George and Jay Foreman have funny ads, too, but they're not worked in as slickly as this one was!

I think this note is based on an fairy tale by the grimm-brother "Gold-Esel"
(Local dialect)
En Isel, dei Dukoten schitt,
Diän hett wey Paderbüörnsken nit,
Doch gift et Isels genaug in der Welt,
Dei kaupet use Papeyergeld.
(Deutsch)
Ein Esel, der Dukaten sche*ßt
den kennen wir Paderborner nicht.
Doch gibt es Esel genug in der Welt,
die kaufen unser Papiergeld.
(English)
An donkey that ducats cr*ps
We don't know in Paderborn.
But there are donkeys enough in the world,
who buy our paper money
Danke für die Übersetzung!
A little note: the fairytale is called "The Wishing-Table, the Gold-Ass, and the Cudgel in the Sack" in English. And indeed, JamesDoe67, I thought of that myself immediately.
Furthermore, I find them resembling stamps.
JamesDoe67 - that is so cool to know - hats off to you ol’chap!
Thank u!
Aber schon weird dass se da nen kackenden Elek raufgeklatscht haben xD
If I were that shark, I would be pissed off too. Crazy chicks these days. You offer them help and they pee on you and break a coconut.
if I were that shark, I would be pissed on
Maybe the shark had a fetish i dunno
What the f
Lol.. too funny 😁

My mother is an immigrant from Holland, and one time she came back with some Dutch money to show me (this was in pre-Euro times). One of the bills had a big barcode, right in the middle of it, but none of the other bills did. I assume this was just a design element, for that reason, but it looked strange.
JJ, I just found this comment. Hi.
Q
@THIS ELVIS FAN my dad found one of those on the street like 5 years ago, it was pretty funny seeing as the euro has been used for a long time now
Those "money of the world" magazines were sold in Germany too about 20 years ago. I still have it's notes and coins in a folder at my parents' house, i think the Mozambique's one is there as well.
That's amazing - annoyed I missed out! I read both issues and they were very interesting, particularly an article about 'E-Money' and how we'll soon be buying things over the Internet!
Same in Poland, still got that Peruvian banknote!
I clearly remember them in Australia in the early 1990s. maybe 1992.
@@HalfAsleepChris I'm just visiting my parents and found my folder with the Mozambique bank note and about 30 other notes from the magazines :)

Are we just going to ignore that statue on the other side of the Cook Islands $3 note?
That's Tangaroa, the God of the sea. It makes sense in the pic. He protects voyagers across the sea. He's also on our $1 coin.
It's a penis
@@rjtp2552 Oh that's cool. I just found it a bit funny, sorry if I was rude.
@@wetasspaddington Don't worry, you weren't rude 😊, EVERYONE likes to point it out. I just grew out of not noticing *that* anymore because he was everywhere
Well,They Are Now Ready To Be Eaten
It's nice the Germans added their own humor during a dark time of their history. The Cook Islands note is fascinating
And seriously wierd
Adof Hitler's time but dead
I see you everywhere and I respect it tbh, keep up the grind
At some point i aspire to own one of every single banknote in the world
I really enjoy these videos
Good luck. Do you mean current series. There are different series and revaluations over the years. Redesigns and serial number varieties. Its an addictive hobby.
@@silvervalleystudios2486 Don't forget all the countries that don't exist anymore
I'd love that as well....
"Isnt that just the smoothest sponsored transition you've ever seen?"
Kento Bento: Hold my beer
Ahem.
The Norwegian Central Bank just announced that the new 1000 Krone banknote will be issued in November 14th
I had no idea! I assumed they'd scrapped the denomination - that's great to hear :)
Norway: *A D D S M O R E Z E R O E S*
Owo i am late tho
I am norwegen
The USSR had interesting denominations when I was there, including 3 roubles and 15 copex (useful for riding the Moscow metro). When I host poker games, I declare the chips worth 10c, 30c, $1, $3 and $10, and it works out really well.
0:52 THE BANKNOTE BLINKED :D
They’re not weird they’re just...
Different.
Oh
The most surprising thing regarding banknotes when I come to uk is they have 2 quid coins. This coin has 18x value compared to the highest value coins in my home country.
Ever been to Switzerland? They use 5 CHF coins in regular cash payments. Now I don't know which currency you use, but that's probably the highest value coin in regular circulation (of course, there are special collector coins in gold or silver that are worth more)
barvdw have you went to Kuwait?
@@ayoubalayoubi3366 no, do they use even higher value coins?
Can't find much information, but if the coin with the highest value in regular circulation in KWD is 0.1 KWD, it's only worth 0.30 CHF.
In the US we have a $20 coin. It hasn't been minted since 1933, but they are still legal tender. However if you have one, you would be better off selling it than using it as payment as some have sold in the millions of dollars.
Who else thinks that chris has a well balanced CZcams channel.
He is selling out like a true hack climbing the greasy pole. Half this video was an advertisement for a VPN.
Serb Kebab same kind of video he would normally do but he’s getting something out of it, what’s wrong with that?
@@serbkebab2763 why should he put all the work in and make these videos for your entertainment for free?
Being a currency collector (mostly coins), I am fascinated by the bank notes presented in your videos! However, I recommend you make a video on the 1946 Hungarian hyperinflation notes. It is a really interesting topic. (Also your ad in this video is very funny).
Been waiting for this 😀😀.Glad you’re back
*Random family on cook island*
10 year old Child: Mom I need 3 Dollars.
Mom:NO!
Child: Why?
Mom:You are not 18+plus
☺
The mom could jus give a note of 2 and a note of 1 (2+1=3)
redgamer21
They have $1 coins
well so does america but stfu
I can see that banknote actually being banned in some conservative countries.
Lol 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸
So they talk of the woman peeing on the shark but, not the statue on the other side with a tail? / penis on show.
Literally the best sponsor segment and transition ever made wow
I feel honored as a Norwegian by you saying our money is amongst the most modern 😂🙏 thank you 😂❤️
And yeah we dont usually use cash anymore but its fun to see that ppl like you notice us anyway 😊❤️
we don't really use hard cash anymore, that is depressing, not a fan of this brave new worldordian dystopia.
Congrats on 200k!!!! I can’t believe your already there! I absolutely love your channel and I’m so happy to see that you’re on your way to 1 million!!
Thanks a lot - I can't believe it either!
Wow!!! Those are very interesting notes. I am Brazilian and even I didn't know that our long-forgotten cruzeiro notes were designed as an ambigram! Thank you for reviving something from our history that not even our schools care to show.
My family has been collecting bank notes and coins for about 100 years. Every time we visit a new country we bring home some money to put into the collection. The thing that shocks me is we have a New Zealand coin from 1920 and the earliest I know of my family coming to New Zealand was in 2000. My family is also from the uk so not an easy trip. I also have a lot of notes from some unique countries too (and some coins from casinos).
Lovely video, I really enjoy the banknote trivia! Regarding the sponsor: probably not a good idea to suggest using it for Netflix, since Netflix’s terms and conditions prohibits using vpn’s.
2:24 the reason is not a joke its a tale from germany.
This was a phenomenal video! Thank you for putting it together!
Ha! Yes, the sponsor trasition was indeed the smoothest I've ever seen.
Chris, you are probably one of my fav youtubers cuz your so talented and have 2 cute cats👌
When i see chris's new video in my feed it gets my emotions!😱😊♥️
Great video Chris and congratulations on 200k subs. Very much deserved 👍🏻
Awesome vid man!
I love the Norwegian krone
Would love to see a series just about stories behind bank notes
Yay I love watching your videos I also love seeing different currencies
That shark outfit was adorable!
Amazing! But a small correction: The ones you mentioned about Brazil were used only between 1980 and 1986. The "cruzeiro" was a name used several times in brazilian money history, using different models. This one lasted until 1986, when it was replaced by the Cruzado (1986-1989). The cruzeiro would return in 1990-1993, but with another design, different from the previous.
@03:46 Yes, yes it is!
I think the donkey was from an old fairytale.
I’ve read it only once so i dont know how it goes but it’s roughly a donkey pooping coins to help out a poor person living on farmlands.
I’ve also read a different one including this trope but it included a goat that could spawn in food on a table and a bag with a club in it for self defence aswel.
I literally live next to Germany so i think that’s how i picked up the story
I saw the blinking note! It's the 100 cruzeiros one!!
All of the banknotes we’re sooooo cool!!😄 My personal favorite was the Norwegian banknotes!! They were sooo pretty!!❤️😁
This kind of stuff is why i collect banknotes, great video!
Disney: "We NEED to MAKE A MOVIE! JUST ANYTHING!"
A naked lady on the Shark Note: *exists
Disney: "JUST DO IT!"
Looking back at your great videos and have just noticed that on like every bank note video, theres someone blinking or closing their eyes, 😂 great little touch and an amazing idea to pull off
Awwww, you look so cute in your shark outfit ^_^
In Argentina during the late 90s and later on during the 2001 crisis we got several types of "Provincial Banknotes". It was like, I don't know, Essex or Manchester decided to start printing money.
During 2001 crisis things got significantly worse because you would find many type of super local currencies made by people, some kind of bartering groups, that you needed to start bartering. Funny thing that you still needed some type of currency. Even funnier is that they were little squares like those German Banknotes you got there.
Your vids are so fascinating and interesting love the vids keep it up
NOOO THAT SHARK OUTFIT IS SOOO ADORABLE
That was the COOLEST transition to advertisement ever, the coincidence!😆
Don’t EVER stop creating the most unique and fascinating content ON CZcams
Coins from Transnistria are plastic, I always thought that was cool.
That is cool, thanks!
it's relatively cheap to get a set as well
Interesting video! When I was a kid I used to collect banknotes... But I was totally surprised to see banknotes from my own country. So, of course, they do not look like weird to me, because I used to pay things with it!
But, on the other hand, your voice sounds very funny to me... And it reminds me the voice of Olga (the singer of an English punk rock band called Toy Dolls).
:)

Blinking banknote!
Noooooice
I love these videos, just your style and presentation is brilliant
Thanks a lot!
The 100 Escudos note was also given away in the Sunday Times magazine, I’m guessing late 80s or early 90s. I remember my dad giving it to me. I’m sure there were a couple of others too.
7:20 - Wow! That's an old 100 rupiah banknote. The money when I was kid.
I remember back in the day, I could buy two candies with it. What a memories.
I just found the channel I have always wanted. Thank you, Chris. Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷
I have the 3 dollar cook islands note with the half naked girl riding the shark. I got it while travelling in the cooks. There they don't regaularly use the cook islands banknotes but only new Zeland dollars banknotes but the cook islands coins are regularly used and include triangular coins and shell shaped ones. The cook islands is probably the most relaxed and probably most beautiful place(see aitutaki) i have ever been to
congrats on ur first sponsor! might try out surfshark
Thanks Alex!
Christ must actually put the largest Single Banknote in the world:
The 100, 000 Philippine Peso ($1949.40)(£1501.27)It measures Roughly the size of a sheet of a legal paper.
Oh wow, I had no idea that existed. My question is, why make a nearly 2000 euro banknote in the modern era?
I have to make a presentation about bills, for my school, so your videos are really helping me out with it✨
Really glad to hear it! :)
Hey man, awesome video!! greetings from Peru!! Intis are a thing of the past now, we now use "Soles" . There's an ongoing collection of 1 sol coins that get a new coin every few months. There are so many I already gave up on collecting all of them.
We have the best banknotes. We WON the world
Kim Jong-un my twin
You can buy North Korean won on eBay.
No, you don't and no you didn't.... (One can only wipe one's bottom with these banknotes; they're worthless) 😛
Your notes are pretty slick
Is that so?
hahaha! Yes, that's the smoothest ad transition ever! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Magazines with money of the world is so cool. like a set of all the table elements
Congrats on 200k
that was, indeed, one amazing way to present your sponsor
5:47 every business dealing with money in Norway is required by law to accept cash
Wish amurica was like that
The shark costume was brilliant!
Excellent vid, as usual!
To add to the Norwegian bank notes, the 1000 Bank note is getting released 14th November, and features a wave on an open sea. With a small Puffin burd in the corner.
Paderborn is my Hometown, lol! I didn't know that those 2 Mark existed. :O
Great video! Happy that I have almost all of them 👍👍
no one:
Norway: **minecraft money**
I own an example of the cook island note and its one of my favourite bank notes
Hey I love your vids
They are really interested and I find them fun thanks for making them
I wonder if they still have those currency magazines we can order to learn about banknotes and get a sample from another country
The notgeld poem actually mocks the people that collected Notgeld bank notes, which already in their day quickly became an item of collection. Which is an even greater joke! It says:
A donkey that shits money,
we Paderbornians don't have.
But there are enough donkeys in the world,
that buy our paper money.
You make really great videos! 🙌
I like your style
The shark suit is HILARIOUS!!
his next vid should be about what the notes should look like if we all had the same currency
2:06 I guess you can say that banknote was pretty shitty
i agree with chris that that was the smoothest content to sponsor transition EVER.
2:52 I have the "doodle dollar" coin shown on a video somewhere on my channel. Man that is one weird deity.
Si happy another video from half-asleep Chris
5:17 FISH MOMENT
The donkey poo note is hilarious! So is the Cook Islands lady and shark! Talk about a banknote jumping the shark!
Cracking vid, more like this please Chris!
Did you buy a shark costume just for that pun😂
I Love youre videos🙂
Maybe... haha! Look out for a costume in all my sponsored videos from now on :)
Your videos and voice overs feel like a BBC documentary 😅 I love it!
Thanks for doing another banknote video
5:17 cool note, i already know the brazilian real notes, but is the first time i see norwegian krones, i like how the 200 krone looks a lot like the 100 real note
but the coolest note in the world must be the 3 dollars from Cook Islands lol
I'd love to see you tackle the irish punts..
I really like the stop motion bits
Such a smooth transition lmao
I don't know if anyone explained the Donkey one, there is a Grimms Tale of three brothers inheriting different things from their teachers. The carpenter a table which fills with food, the woodcarver gets a Switch in a bag which beats up anyone the owner wants, and the Miller a donkey that poopes gold. Long story short someone stole both the table and the donkey but the jungest brother, the woodcarver tricked the thief into opening it. The thief got beaten up and the brothers got their thins back.
ANYWAY sorry for the wall of text, but it was important to me as a German person. Great video, even if I am only now binging your channel I was on/off since 2019
At 0:53, they wink, you do that in every banknote video 😂😉
Cook islands: check out of my cool 3 dollar bill
Every single country: uhhhhhhh......
The Bahamas also had/have a $3 bill. It was introduced back in the late '60s because their dollar was pegged to the pound at £1:$3. They also have a square 15c coin. Fiji has a $7 bill that was released a few years ago to commemorate some Rugby event.
That's awesome, I didn't know! I have the Fiji $7 bill though - it's super cool, and I was debating including it in this video, but I've recently included it in another - "Banknotes with Hidden Secrets"
