Currencies Of Europe
There are 27 currencies currently used in the 50 countries of Europe. All '' de facto'' present currencies in Europe, and an incomplete list of the preceding currency, are listed here. In Europe, the most commonly used currency is the euro (used by 26 countries); any country entering the European Union (EU) is expected to join the eurozone when they meet the five convergence criteria.

The United Kingdom's currency, sterling, is rated fourth on Investopedia's list of the top 8 most tradable currencies, and that it i ...
