Currency is money. Coins are metallic money. Therefore, all coins are currency, but not all currency is coin.
January 9th, 2009 at 6:38 am
No they are not the same thing coins are a piece of metal stamped and issued by the authority of a government for use as money, currency in the other hand is a time or period during which something is widely accepted and circulated (coins) at that CURRENT time. Even though coins can be valuable they are only valuable for a certain time frame and then they can be outdated.

Coins are part of the currency. However, currency is used generally for paper money.
For example, you have $100 US dollars in paper money and 59cents in coins. Your total amounts in US dollar currency is $100.59. But if you are asked how much currency you have, you would answer $100 dollars excluding the 59 cents in coins.
January 9th, 2009 at 6:38 am
No,
Coins are just part of the name of currency. (Example:Canadian Coins) Currency is what the value of the coins are and where they can be used.

No. A one-peso coin and a nickel are both coins… but they are denominated in different currency. Gets?
