Other countries have coins whose size doesn't correspond to their value. The Australian 50-cent coin is larger in diameter than the one-dollar coin or two-dollar coin (although the $2 is thicker in width). At least the paper bills are different colors and sizes -- 20s are large and orange, and 5s are smaller and purple.
