# Indian Currency Recognition Dataset
## Overview
The **Indian Currency Recognition Dataset** is a publicly available dataset designed for researchers and developers working on **currency classification**, **currency recognition**, and **counterfeit currency detection** using computer vision and deep learning.
The dataset contains high-resolution images of multiple Indian currency denominations captured under real-world conditions. It includes both old and new currency notes and has been augmented to improve model generalization.
