Physical currency differentiation also introduces an extra level of security against forgery - it's one more production step that a forger has to copy.

(This parallels online security - phishing sites that I've viewed in the past with Firefox's HTML Tidy extension's accessibility validator turned on have invariably generated more errors than the real thing.)
