What is the the currency of most of the countries in Europe?

No currency can be said to be the currency of most European countries. The Euro is the currency of 19 countries in Europe, but there are around 50 countries in Europe. So the Euro is the currency that is most common, but most European countries do not use it. All 19 of those countries are in the organisation known as the European Union, which has 28 countries in it. So most countries in the European Union use the Euro, but there are many other countries in Europe that are not members of the European Union.
