I don't know if size really matters, but as far as the Indian banknotes
concerns, there is something to say about their sizes.
First of all, the smaller denominations, 5, 10 and 20 have the same
hight.
Same goes for the other notes of 50, 100, 500 and 1000.
The 50 note is a bit smaller then the 20, but from then on, they all
increase in lenght.

As there is so much to say about Indian banknotes, I had to mention the
languages at the back of the notes.
Let's put
them next to eachother:
|
5, 10 and 20 ( 15 languages)
|
|
50, 100, 500 and 1000 (15 languages)
|
If we look at one note in particular, we see 15 languages that are
spoken in India.

Finally, to be complete, the word "rupee" is derived from the
Sanskrit word रूप्यकम् (rūpyakam)
and means "silver". This same word in Bengali is : টাকা (taka);
and 'taka' is the currency in Bangladesh.
