I fought today, but it could have more to do with me rather than the difficulty of searching.
My first thought when I saw the theme was that we were looking for something to do with collection. I thought of stamps, furniture and comics first-one world, where mint-conditioning objects are worth a huge amount more than comics you may have actually read.
I needed more tips to make me go, and after getting euro and peso, I slowly worked to get the rest of the board, including the speng.
I suppose the majority of players Kwanza was my last global currency. I have since discovered three facts of Angola’s currency, in case it ever comes up in a relaxed conversation: 1) It is named after a river 2) it replaced Escudo in 1977, and 3) all the notes Agostinho Neto, the poet and the leader who helped fight Angola’s independence from Portugal. Every day is a school day with threads.
