:/

none would, they can all be made and are not unique items. the ponit of curency is that it is a thing that can be traded for goods or services, it loses it's value as soon as it is not unique, ie. if you could make a ton of american money why would i work hard if i could just buy mroe cheaply.

the sheep would for sure but it's not practical

1. No, they aren't sturdy enough and someone might eat them (like a squirrel, bird, idiot watching nascar, etc).
2. Maybe. But then you couldnt play checkers. But they are a bit more durable.
3. Nope, too big. And then what would the NBA play with–canteloupe?
4. No. They cost more than they're worth. And they're too big to carry around in your wallet. And they poop a lot. And smell.
5. Nope. Too much of it around and that makes your money basically "devalued" (worthless).

1) Peanuts - No. Too crumbly when in your pocket.

2) Checkers - No. Too much mass production.

3) Basketballs - No. Can't fit them in your pocket or wallet.

4) Sheep - No. Need to also carry a shovel or "pooper scooper."

5) Sand - No. Leaks out of any hole in your pocket.

none of the above

Peanuts for nuts
Checkers in place of cheques
Basketballs for jocks
Sheep for clothing
Sand for everything else as it will always slip through your fingers.

Peanuts, no. Too easily broken & eaten, or lost.

Checkers, no. Plastic can break easier, become nasty quickly, and would be much too easy to recreate.

Basketballs, most definately not. Too large & heavy, production of said would be too costly to supply currency demands. Also, the resource of which its made from would run out quickly.

Sheep, possibly. You can have a constant supply of sheep, but they aren't easy to carry around, and would take a while to reproduce. We would run out of land space to feed them very quickly, then you'd have an overpopulation of sheep.

Sand, no. Too abundant, easily recreated or found. Heavy when combined in baggies, not ideal for quick transportation.

well, if u have learned about economics, money is a medium of exchange. this means that this currency has to be readily available as a trading item widely used and easy to carry and exchange but also a resource not readily available for public production(governments make money) and not a hassle because everyone is getting their hands on it. peanuts, sheep, basketballs, and checkers are already used as separate subjects or resources for entertainment, food, etc. also, sand is not something you could perhaps pull out of a pocket easily, see measure of account, or see valuable. none are good.

They dont fit the charecteristics of money.

Not durable, divsivble, portable atc.
