How does that help foreigners who are not trained to recognise the various faces and to know which face goes which which value? Show me a pre-Euro Dutch bank note (while hiding the information on the actual value) and I can instantly tell you the correct value. Do the same with US bank notes, and I will be totally clueless. >Color does not help the blind or the color-blind and most sight >impaired people in any way. Probably true, but that group of people is still a minority. It is helpful for the majority who are not sight-impaired. Combine the use of colours with some easy to remember pictures (not of people, but of objects such as buildings, flora and fauna) and you have a winning combination. >Most colors are hard to distingiush in the dark. Only when it is very dark, and most people have no reason to count their money in the very dark.
