That's weird. As an American who just visited Japan, I can tell you I thought their currency felt flimsy, especially compared to a dollar bill. It was tearing with a crease in a bill that I had folded maybe twice. Now I understand why they still use coins like mad, because their coins are awesome. Before I left I was worried I'd have a sack of change in my pocket anytime I went anywhere, and after I was there I was mad when I didn't!
That being said, they did have different lengths for their bills, which I think probably helps the blind. Got us there.
