Antarctican dollar
Antarctican dollars are collector's items produced by the Antarctica Overseas Exchange Office in the appearance of a national money for the continent of Antarctica. Although the bills are not legal tender in Antarctica or in any other continent or nation, the issuing company will "honor them for their face value throughout their validity period." Illustrations of the currency can be viewed at the Antarctica Overseas Exchange Office website.
The Antarctica Overseas Exchange Office claims to use a portion of all proceeds from the sale of Antarctican dollars to fund organizations seeking to undertake research and humanitarian projects in the Antarctic region.
