H is the funniest. You'd get to pay people in rocks. That will lead to so much interesting slang

MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca · 13 pts · 333d

rocks

Jesus Christ theneverfox, they're not rocks, they're minerals!

Gives a new meaning to: “take something for granite”

B is the best. Switzerland is gonna have the most modern money in the world

Liome@pawb.social · 9 pts · 333d

I like B the most, but J is not too bad either.

Man i think B is cool

Vanth@reddthat.com · 4 pts · 333d

I like the rocks and concept L best.

At least two have women in clothing with exposed arms and legs while the men are covered, including even their heads in some cases. In this year, 2025, are we still considering scientist man in serious thought versus swimming suit lady frolicking on the beach? Really?

::: spoiler spoiler Personally I would go with B or K. :::

chunes@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 333d

I like J the best because it looks (to my American eye) the most like money to me. B is also pretty good in that respect. The rest look more like photos or pamphlets or something.

"people get to choose"… last time the second place got picked because the committee didn't like the first placed one. It had different scale things on them, an atom for the smallest bill and our galaxy for the largest. But for a middle denomination one there was an image of a fetus and they didn't like that.

so the public can join but the national bank still has final say

[edit]

results from last time if anyone is interested

PlzGivHugs@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 332d

I personally like B, J, and I. Of those I is my favorite, since it feel like its doing a better job trying to represent the country in a visual way.

A lot of these have the vibe of 90s Encarta Encyclopedia on CD

G - would be cool to have butt cheeks on your money

alehel@lemmy.zip · 3 pts · 332d

So that's why they feel nostalgic. I miss 90s PC stuff.

Wahots@pawb.social · 2 pts · 332d

Concept G for skiing and swimming, or concept H because that's super cool to have rocks and minerals on currency.

kkj@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 333d

G has a pretty lady, a dog, and a cow. No contest.

shalafi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 332d

Meanwhile, in America, we're using pretty much the same bills and coins as when I was a child 50 years ago.

BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 332d

I don’t care for any of them. If I had to choose, I’d argue that G feels the most cohesive to me. I also like the cow with the fancy hat.

solrize@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 332d

Do one with holes in the bills, like Swiss cheese.

I'll asked my weed dealer, as they are the only reason I have to use paper money once a month.
