Money is a printed note from a country that is backed with some form of precious metal. One of the few exceptions to this rule is the United States of America which has nothing to back their money.

I thought they had a large gold reserve that was used for this purpose. (Ended in 1972)

Anyway.

Paper is most often made from wood fibers. Money is most often made from other types of paper, commonly made from cotton or with cotton.

Paper from cotton or with cotton is more tear and wear proof. It does not normally come apart in a washing machine.

This difference in paper is also why money are difficult to forge.

If you look at paper quality, then you can normally notice a fake note instantly.

How is money manufactured?

There are a number of different kinds of money which are manufactured in different ways. Coins are historically the oldest form of money, and they are stamped out by means of dies, from sheets of metal. Paper money is printed on printing presses, but there can be other steps to the manufacturing process of paper money. A lot of paper money (in different countries) now comes with holographic verification strips to make counterfeiting more difficult, and those are manufactured separately with laser technology, and added to the paper. There are also special techniques for adding watermarks (that is done when the paper itself is manufactured, even before any printing is done).
