Two corrections: The Star Trek currency is called 'Latinum' not 'Latnium as I said (my apologies!) And I've also mis-labelled 'John Wick 3' as 'John Wick 4'

Hi :)

I also believe the Harry Potter coin is suposed to be pronounced "cu-nut" rather than nut.
@@liamandrews1415 I've heard people pronounce it that way in other videos, but just assumed they were wrong? Is it ever mentioned aloud in any films or anything official?
Can’t believe you left out the most important imaginary currency: the one in my wallet
Oof
Same
Self burn! Those are rare.
Ow
Thats depressing.
The bottlecaps one reminds me of my childhood. I had a pretty sad childhood and lived in a giant slum. All the local kids and I used to collect bottlecaps and use them as currency because all the adults drank so much and left their garbage everywhere. Caps for uncommon alcohols were worth much more due to their rarity, while easy to pick up caps were worth like a penny in value. We would buy things like pieces of food, running errands, even gambled during various activities. In my teen years I still had a shoebox of various bottlecaps just in case even though I had already escaped that life. A bittersweet memory.
The fact that Chris included SCHRUTE BUCKS. Legendary.
Yo
I use Stanley nickels
@@blop2735 lol
And that he quickly referenced the deleted scene with creed printing hundreds of thousands of schrute bucks to get $200 cash from dwight by threat of releasing them and flooding the market lol
It never fails to crack me up when I see the gigantic, full-sheet-of-paper sized Schrute buck. Even just the way he holds it makes me laugh.
You actually made a sponsor fun to watch. That's why this channel is one of the best on youtube.
"Wizarding currency is complicating"
British pound pre-1970: *hold my pint*
At least that was based on base-60, and while complicated was devised to be easy to do the maths in your head. Rowling obviously took inspiration from many of the strange names, but deliberately chose numbers that don’t divide nicely at all.
@@kaitlyn__L Base-10 all the way!
As it currently is.
That was easy, its was just a dozen and the 12 times table.
@@Hailstonepie But then you get marks, which were 2/3 of a pound, and guineas, which were 1 1/20 of a pound.
@@SamAronow guineas were a nice way to count a 5% margin on something; you bought something in pounds, sold it in guineas, bam, you're 5% richer. Apparently useful in auction houses, where the person selling would be paid in pounds the amount of guineas the piece sold for.
Mark is weird though, 13s4d? Like who needs that :D
I think it makes sense to use actual high value metal coins for trading in a galaxy spanning civilization. When it comes to interstellar trading, bartering really is the only way to go.
Never! Invest in dogecoin, it will outlast humanity
@@bobjoebo8933 Eh, I'm sticking to bartering. I just like to see what random object will I trade for.
The fact that you mentioned the chocolate form is just HILARIOUS
Chris’ surf shark ads are the best, always love these
Ikr
Yeah he is the best with sponsors
hey, i really love your videos, there really well put together and these days you dont often find youtube channels that aren`t all up-in-your-face. well done!
I ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Someone: how many coins do you have?
Half-Asleep Chris: yes
In elementary school ppl made "duck bills" with donald duck drawn into it.
I still have mine and it brings so many memories 😅
What can it buy you?
Same but I drew the money for an in desk rubber duckie society and printed it
6:19
That is actually hilarious
I’m a huge fallout fan and I’m happy to see that caps aren’t forgotten
You put a lot of effort into your videos Chris! And it really shows! Keep up the amazing work!
Where do I get a Shark Outfit. That was an amazing sponsored segment
Yeah it really sets him apart from the biting sponsored segments. This guy deserves so much more subs.
Indeed
Fun fact, the brand of soda the bottle cap comes from means nothing, and hasn't since the first Fallout game. The caps value was originally tied to the price of water, and were often referred to as Hub Bucks, since it was the water traders of The Hub who started using caps as a currency as there was a finite amount of them to go around, and its surprisingly difficult to make counterfeits. The second game did away with bottle caps, replacing them with NCR dollars that were based on traditional American currency backed by gold, and mine scrip. NCR dollars are present in New Vegas, but have been severely devalued do to the various wars the NCR involved themselves in. Fallout Tactics replaced caps with ring pulls, and featured them alongside so called Brotherhood scrip.
Fallout 3 only features bottle caps as the predominant currency, and started the trend of caps being this magic item that everyone holds the same value too. New Vegas, 4, and 76 feature alternative currency along side the cap, but those currencies either serve no real purpose (New Vegas' Legion coins and NCR dollars), or are for very specific transactions (76s gold bullion, legendary scrip, treasury notes, Mr. Fuzzy and mine prize claim tokens, ammo points, 4s nuka-cade tickets hand tokens, and New Vegas' casino chips.
There does exist in every game post 3, wads of pre-war money, that in the lore of the game universe had been completely devalued due to hyperinflation. Pre-war money has virtually no value in 3, Vegas, and 76, but sports a value in 4.
I’m not a fan of collecting fictional notes (like Antarctica or 0 Euro notes), but I think I might start collecting theses because of their interesting backstory and references
Just wanted to say I just found your channel and your videos are really cool. I really like the format and you present the subjects in a very interesting way! Witty, humorous and informative. 10/10!
Wow, what an incredible video Chris! I hope there is a followup, going deeper down some of the rabbit holes. Keep up the good work. (when do we see your own Banknotes and coins? :) )
Chris i love your videos, your such a kind and passionate person I love your cats as well, thank you for the inspiration you gave me ❤ :)
Ralph n Bella they're my favourite little coiny cats

Adult Swim actually made limited edition Rick and Morty, "Shmeckles" coins. on one side they show the face of one of the characters from the show, and on the other side, they have the Shmeckels logo above a smaller Rick and Morty logo. Written along the top of the coin it reads: 25 Shmeckles. They were produced in 2019 in conjunction with Cartoon Network.
I always watch your vids early, keep it up Chris!
No joke, i reminded it so perfectly it made a loop
I can just imagine another video with more currencies. Rupies from Zelda, Coins from Mario, Rings from Sonic, and who knows how many more are out there.
You had me at imperial credits
wow! every time i watch one of these vids i learn alot more!
I have an old Monopoly game from the 1960's and the banknotes still called "Mark", because "Deutsche Mark" were the currency in Germany in the 60s. And they are more pastell than the newer ones.
FALLOUT IS AWSOME DUDE THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT !
I’m collecting as many varieties of fictional currency that I can. Star Wars being my favorite. I love the idea of using these in a role playing way. Like with playing actual Sabacc, using them at a Renaissance festival, or at Galaxy’s Edge.
So awesome, thank you for sharing Chris, always very cool information that most of us would never have paid that much attention to!
Amazing video Chris!!! I never through about the currency in movies and TV, bit I'll definitely keep an eye out from now on. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go get some imperial credits
Glad to see your doing more things
Fallout caps are really important they use them because of the Hubologists and you get them by checking draws and lockers or selling materials clothes and wepons you use them to buy clothes and wepons
I was like yessssssssssssss when I saw harry potter in netflix where I live I almost cried of joy
Yay! I'm so happy I love the Harry Potter series, theres a bit of it in this video! Thanks Chris! 👍 I'm gonna enjoy this video a lot!
OMG SAME
Was definitely pleasantly surprised to see latinum there. I think the designs on the various size bars is really appealing.
I can understand why you didn’t go into the conversions of each currency, but latinum at least works fairly sensibly: 100 slips make a strip and 20 strips make a bar. I’ve always thought of them basically like cents and dollars as a result, with the bar being just extra big for the sake of it (which reminds me of the farthing in old British money). At least the conversions are numerically nice, unlike Rowling’s, which I find important for worldbuilding. Since, despite them all have computers presumably more advanced than our smartphones in their pockets, it’s still nice to just be able to divide something by 100 without having to whip a calculator out.
(I personally find Rowling’s hand wave bothersome since we never see magic calculators or magic abacuses in the books or films. It’s plausible they could have those, or for instance, enchant a quill to write out maths answers, but if so, why not show us it in the many scenes where the students are studying for end of year exams? As you hint at, it’s just yet another example of backfill from Rowling, when she could just as easily have said, yep I wanted the numbers to be silly. But instead she tried to say the numbers weren’t actually silly, and they totally made sense somehow, even though they’re clearly chosen to not divide easily.)
Nobody gonna talk about how at 5:07 him saying “Schrute Buck” lines up with Dwight?
I love the Battlestar Galactica ones!!
Nice video😄 I am from Israel, and I was very excited to suddenly see the shekel ☺️(שקל). What was funny though, was that the shekel you showed was a 200 shekels buck. It's like talking about a dollar and showing a 200 buck😂
The amount of coins and banknotes Chris has is outstanding
I absolutely love this!
Top secret cat stuff! Purrfect thing to protect!
And the cat puns video was hillarious great job
i'm also a collector, can you please do old francs? those really large ones, you must know which ones i mean. they're so pretty!
that Ralph and Bella conversation tho' 😂😂😂
Please make this a series
Lol the shark costume 😂
I found a 1920 one penny the other day, I don't think it's worth anything since it's in bad condition (it's REALLY rusty but what do you expect), but I'm still happy!
I love that you added the LEGO currency.
Chris: Awesome Chris in a shark suit: Awsomer
It’s John wick chapter 3 parabellum
Just a spelling recorrection!
yes lego money is best money although we only have 1,2,5,10 unit gold coins a 5 unit silver coin and a 100 unit note. i think they are called "studs" from the cheque in brick bank

I may be months late but I have to say the Bolts Currency in the ratchet and clank series will always hold a special place in m heart
for when a video of the banknotes of Mexico 🇲🇽 and my country Colombia🇨🇴?
I'm finding it hard to get new banknotes at the moment due to the pandemic, but definitely plan on making one about the new Mexican banknotes when I get them :)
Those money studs in Lego are included in star wars bat man and more!
The only thing you forgot about fallout is that in New vegas it's shown that the NCR as well as the Legion have their own currencies
A really interesting and unique video, nice one Chris :)
This man is a LEGEND
This Is A wholesome Nerdy video... And I Love It, Keep Up The good work.
