Mutilated currency is a term used by the United States Bureau of Engraving and Printing BEP to describe currency which is damaged to the point where it is difficult to determine the value of the currency, or where it is not clear that at least half of the note is present. Common causes of damage are fire, water, chemicals, explosives, animals or damage from extended burying of the currency. Banknotes which are merely very dirty, or very worn out, but where the value is clear, are not considered mutilated and can be traded in at any bank from where they will eventually be processed out of circulation. In general, mutilated currency of US dollars can be sent to the BEP for evaluation, and if it is determined that at least half of the currency is present, or there is clear enough evidence that whatever parts are missing are destroyed, the owner of the mutilated currency can have the money value of the mutilated currency refunded to them. Annually, this amounts to about 30,000 claims and over 30 million in refunds.

A Community Currency is often used as synonym for complementary currency , local currency , regional currency , alternative currency , auxiliary currencies , and private currencies . The debate is not easy to solve, since the words have different meanings to different people. All are currencies that have different designs and serve different purposes than our conventional money. They depart from the notion that money is essentially a human invention and instrument to influence the relations between citizens and organizations. A solid theoretical framework legitimizes this idea and in the past hundred years a lot of experimentation and experience was picked up with realizing social goals by the implementation of community currencies. Community Currency describes currencies that are used by groups with a common bond , like members of a locality, or association. Complementary currency describes currencies that exists as a supplement to our conventional national money. A complementary currency is an agreement to use something else than legal tender i.e. national money as a medium of exchange, with the purpose to link unmet needs with otherwise unused resources Lietaer & Hallsmith 2006 2 . Alternative currency is often used, but in essence this term is deceitful in many cases, as many currencies are designed to be complementary, and not to concur with or to substitute conventional currencies.
