Their bills were also waterproof (laminated somehow I think) so if they got washed it wouldn't wreck them. They came in all different colours, and the larger denomination bills were longer in length than the smaller ones, which made it pretty easy to organise and count your money.
Way ahead in my mind.

Euro's are like that too. I didn't like the different sizes of bills, it fit weird in your wallet. In Holland, before the Euro, they also had a coin for 5-ers, which was about the size of a quarter, only thicker. You could easily walk around with $30 in change in your pockets.
When they got rid of their pennies, the stores would round to the nearest 5 cents.
