Nice rendering. How do the different countries make these symbols, I wonder?#3: Teresa K (fasstar) on Apr 16, 2009 [SPOILER]

I think the answer is "both."#6: Linda Martin (ilovethispuzzle123) on Mar 10, 2011
The Cambriel is not a single coin, but a unit of measure. The Cambodian coins were minted from 1979 to 1994 in denominations of 50, 100, 200, and 500 riel. However, these are no longer commonly found in circulation. Banknotes were issued from denominations of 50 to 50,000 Cambriels.
Their rate of inflation was 26% in 1994, and is around 20% now. Cambodia is a very poor country, with 35% living below the poverty level.
this symbol looks strange to me, but i guess the us dollar looks strange to someone else somewhere on this planet. i get lost when the us dollar converts to a thousand or more of another country's unit. great series.#7: Teresa K (fasstar) on Mar 10, 2011
