In the jungles of brazil, native currency is nothing more than $ signs crafted from the mud of the amazon river and baked in the heat of a volcano. Many rural areas of the Nile are similar in that they gather the sandy mud from the nile river, shape it in to € signs and once cooked in the desert sun are exchanged goods. In both areas, the signs are usually exchanged for cigarrettes and pornographic playing cards, the REAL currancy of the third world.
