How do blind people tell the different denominations of paper money?

∙ 13y ago
The United States is one of the only developed countries to not currently have special sizing or any other distinct features on our paper currency to help the blind differentiate between the denominations. They must, unfortunately, rely on those around them, including strangers, to be honest. Please speak up if you ever witness anyone being taken advantage of. Fortunately, some changes are coming in the future to our paper currency that will help, but I believe this was by happenstance and not directly to help the blind in our communities. Sad.

∙ 13y agoThere's no method really, most just develop a syatem of organizing the money by folding it differently or by carrying it in a different pocket.
I've heard there is a plasic money holder you get, you can get someone to organise the money into the separate parts and by pressing a button you can hear whish money is in which part.

What is euro money look like?
France uses Euros, which vary according to the country of issue, though you can spend them anywhere in the Eurozone. Americans immediately notice 2 things about euro notes: 1) Different denominations are different colours, so you can tell them apart at a glance. 2) Different denominations are different sizes, so blind people can tell them apart, too. 3) Different denominations have different designs, so you don't get bored. Neat ideas, huh? For the actual appearance, the European Central Bank has a useful leaflet, which you can see on http://www.ecb.int/pub/pdf/other/euroleafleten.pdf
