<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancient coin hunter, post: 8145276, member: 87200&quot;]The money of Egypt always has ancient motifs along with more recent Islamic monuments reflecting times long past...both on coins and the banknotes.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1420353[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1420355[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Since the exchange rate is 15 pounds to the dollar currently I call it a travelers paradise. For example, coffee in a cafe costs 2 pounds, 5 pounds for coffee and a shisha pipe smoke. Lunch such as a falafel wrap or fuul wrap might cost 2-3 pounds. A loaf of bread, usually bought five at a time costs 5 piastres (one hundred piastres to the Egyptian pound). If you avoid the tourist packages sold before one arrives in the country at Western prices you would be very wise! (Including the expensive $20k tours led by Zahi Hawass).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
