About Drachmas from Greece
Little Sophie tells us
OK Pat,
Sorry for taking so long to reply, but Sophie is only little!!! So today we've decided to reply to your nice letter!!!
We have bank notes of 10.000, 5.000, 1.000, 500, 200 and 100 drachmas. As for coins nowadays we have 100, 50, 20, 10 and 5 drachmas. We used to have until recently 2 and 1 drachma coins and when I was a boy (30 years ago that is, because I am 41 now) we also had 1/2, 1/5, 1/10 and 1/20 drachma coins!!!! Now we do not even use 2 drachma coins!!! I do not know if we are getting richer or poorer!!! Ha Ha Ha!!!
So here is Sophie now!!!
