Have you ever wondered what it’d be like to spend a million Vietnamese Dong on a hotel? Or tens of millions of Iranian Rials on one McDonald’s happy meal?
After traveling to every country in the world, these are the most confusing currencies I’ve had to deal with!

Cuba was confusing a few years ago having the local people's peso (CUP) and the tourist convertible peso (CUC).

For some reason the Dong didn’t bother us but in a recent trip the Colombian peso was a challenge. Especially when their ATM have high fees and low maximum.

in albania we add a zero to the prices for example at the bakery 1 kg of bread costs 100 lek the cashier will tell you it is 1000 lek but you need to pay 100, for foreigners when a price is written e.g. 450 lek they are asked to pay 450 to don't get confused, we will be asked for 4500 lek, but we will still pay 450, this is a story from 1965, when it was a year when the banknotes changed, where in that period old and new lek were used together, where 10 old lek corresponded to 1 new!

You should try Haiti. The currency is the Haitian Gourde (US$1 = ~ 141 HTG). But, years ago the currency used to be tied to the dollar, US$1 = 5 HTG. So now they will transact in "Haitian Dollars," a fictional currency that doesn't even really exist where 5 Haitian Gourdes is 1 Haitian Dollar (A 100 Haitian Gourde note is 20 Haitian Dollars, etc). It makes things extremely confusing because sometimes people will also use US Dollars. Say, for example, I want to buy a sack of rice at the local street market. If the vendor says "100 Dollars," she means 500 Haitian Gourdes. They've been doing this for so long that they don't even have to think about it. They see a 500 Gourde note as a 100 Haitian Dollar note. 20 years ago even grocery stores would list priced in Haitian Dollars. The government finally had to step in and demand prices be listed in Haitian Gourdes, but in the streets the Haitian Dollar is still very commonly used.
