Money Matters

100-euro

In this weeks ‘point of view’ on BBC Radio 4 (aired on February 16) Adam Gopnik explains why he thinks the pictures on our banknotes matter. His ideas connect nicely with our discussions about money being both a token and a thing in week 2. In his words: “The iconography of money is more than just decor – it displays the true convictions of the commonwealth that intends to support its value.”
