@chloejadetravels: I love travel because it shows you incredible things Now, let’s get into all of the questions about shell money: Can anyone print shell money? How much is it worth? Yes, shell money is a real currency, but let’s dive deeper! VALUES White shells are the easiest to find so they are worth the least - 30 shells = $1 The brown shells become Orange with heat: - 30= $2 Black: - 30 = $2 The rarest is Red: - 30= $5 1 unit = 10 strands 1 strand = 7, 8, or 10 feet Unit prices: 1 (7ft) unit = $1000 Solomon 1 (8ft) unit = $1500 Solomon DOWRY: Given to girls family, and can ask for as many units as they want, even 50 units! LAND All the land conflicts are because of western ideals. Everyone normally owns the land. But changing ideals makes one person owns it. Any type of conflict can be solved with giving shell money! It’s a beautiful tradition that is becoming more popular in other parts of the country, so that gives the people of Langalanga the opportunity to make other types of money to use , by producing shell money! #solomonislandstiktok🇸🇧 #pacificislands #2025travel #malaita
