Money was not always an easy-to-come-by commodity for the colonists. In this episode, you’ll become familiar with some money terms, and you’ll learn the history of money in New France, including the problems of counterfeiting and inflation and how it affected our ancestors’ lives.

At the end of the podcast I’ll give you the link to receive a free 3-page PDF download which summarizes the key points of this episode.
