Why do some coins have holes in them? Will plastic soon replace paper currency? The history of money closely parallels the history of chemistry, with advances in material science leading to advances in our physical currency. From the earliest examples of money, through the rise of coins, paper, plastic and beyond, with excursions into corrosion and counterfeiting along the way, this book provides a chemist's eye view into the history of the cash in our pockets. [...] You will never look at money the same way again!" --$cBack cover 606 $aMoney$xHistory 606 $aChemistry$xHistory 615 0$aMoney$xHistory. 615 0$aChemistry$xHistory. 676 $a332.49 700 $aRohrig$b Brian$01807406 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910984612703321 996 $aThe Chemistry of Money$94357102 997 $aUNINA
