US bills do not have to be pristine or spanking new as per Myanmar and Vietnam. They are far more lenient in Cambodia and will accept older notes and also marked bills- ink stamps and writing. At least, we've not had any problems so far and the money we've had out of the ATMs have been decidedly second hand.
The local currency is the Riel and there are approximately 4 300 of them to the US dollar. No coins, just notes and that gets me to thinking. How can they make a phone call from a public telephone box, I wonder?
