I like the currency of the united state of America because the U.S. dollar is the
currency most used in international transactions and is the world's reserve
currency. Several countries use it as their official currency, and in many others it
is the de facto currency, and is also used as the sole currency in some British
Overseas Territories.

The United States dollar (sign: $; code: USD). The U.S. dollar is normally
abbreviated as the dollar sign, $, or as USD or US$ to distinguish it from other
dollar-denominated currencies and from others that use the $ symbol. The per $
cost according to Pakistani rupees approximately 86rupes.
