As general help, for the money class take a look of this: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pymoney There you'll see that the approach was to store the value, not subclass Decimal, as the other currency info makes math ugly. For example: Money("15.30", currency="USD") + Money("2.33", currency="ARS") There's a lot of discussion for a Money data type, also, in python-list and python-dev (I even proposed a pre-PEP), but then Decimal was implemented; check those lists at the fourth quarter of 2003 for these posts.
