December 20, 20169 yr comment_891172 There's this pretty amazing Youtube channel called Extra Credits. They're chiefly game developers and they did a bunch of very informative, concise shorts on game design and how video games work, but they have a series where they discuss history. There was a really good one they did on paper money, and since it's a topic that comes up here as well from time to time, thought you guys might enjoy this: Episode 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nZkP2b-4vo Episode 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPHTmGjoe2k Episode 3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKtNuzakzMA&index=112&list=PLhyKYa0YJ_5Aq7g4bil7bnGi0A8gTsawu Episode 4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzH1p3t2oRE&list=PLhyKYa0YJ_5Aq7g4bil7bnGi0A8gTsawu&index=113 Episode 5 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrB9bS2VOLE&list=PLhyKYa0YJ_5Aq7g4bil7bnGi0A8gTsawu&index=114 Episode 6 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNo7MDN5-0g&list=PLhyKYa0YJ_5Aq7g4bil7bnGi0A8gTsawu&index=115 Clarifications and additional discussion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s31ESRvR1p4 Report
