Money Mark Albums
Money is any item or verifiable record that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts, such as taxes, in a particular country or socio-economic context. The primary functions which distinguish money are as a medium of exchange, a unit of account, a store of value and sometimes, a standard of deferred payment.

Contexts which erode public confidence, such as the circulation of counterfeit money or domestic hyperinflation, can cause good money to lose ...
