	Tradition - 03/1/04
		"Odd and curious money" is a name given to items in various cultures around the world that were, or may still be used, as a source of money or wealth, and that fall outside universally accepted forms of money like coins and paper money.
		Opitz said what is referred to as "odd and curious money" in North America is called "primitive money" in Europe.
