paper money
Cash you fold
Paper money is currency in the form of printed notes issued by a government or central bank, as opposed to coins or precious metals.
The value of paper money depends on trust in the issuing authority rather than the intrinsic worth of the material: The country's paper money became worthless after the economic collapse.
Also called paper currency.
