They used many types of currency. The main ones were trading goods and using cocoa bean. The higher quality of the bean the more its worth.The Aztecs also used a form of money called the Quachtli, although this wasnt as common as bartering or trading, and was again a form of cotton cut into standardized lengths. But lastly the most strange currency they had was children. Children would sell for as much as 600 cocoa bean.
