How's this one world currency thing gonna work?

What would happen if the world operated under one form of currency? What economic impacts (good & bad) would the world encounter if the entire planet operated under one form of currency? Several (long-shot) assumptions have to be considered... so PLEASE READ before answering: 1. All countries are allies/neutral amongst each other. So no rogue nations or crazy-dictators who oppose the world currency. In other words, all nations have stable governments (doesn't just have to be a democracy - just STABLE). 2. Anti-counterfeiting methods are optimal. This form of currency is 100% counterfeit-proof. 3. The currency is NOT backed by gold any other type of precious metal. 4. All forms of existing currency, such as the dollar, pound, yen, etc are obsolete. Of course persons who owned such had them converted to the new currency fairly. 5. A multi-international "Federal Reserve" monitors the production of the new currency where 12-nation-districts print the currency. This organization operates similar to the Fed in the US.

What is the solution to creating a "one world currency" ? please, answers that do not provide solutions are just opinions: opinions are a dime a dozen. Spare me the pain of reading tripe. For example, I really do not care about "nation-state" protectionism, we all know the world economy is beyond that now. Making "Profits" is usually done by enslaving ppl. Communism destroys the individual. Perhaps the solution is within the formation of a transparent world government. Right now I find it disgusting that currency is issued by private banks...again, please, solutions, not opinions. (pls, do not vote as "answered" on this question if a solution is not provided with in the answer!!!)

Good community website for world currency collecting? Looking for a community-generated website (for example a wiki) dedicated to world coin and banknote collecting that has thorough info on coins and notes. For example one issue I have with banknoteworld.com is that while they have a good set of scanned bills, they don't include a lot of detailed info -- like watermark, ultraviolet, other security features, description of bill. Meanwhile banknotes.com has some of this info but is not nearly exhaustive. Any site -- say a numismatic or notaphilic wiki -- that does better than these?
