Question

Hello, is it correct to say in Persian “اين پول چه كشوري است" 
(this is money of what country?) or is “اين پول مال چه كشوري است" more natural way to phrase it?

Answer

Both are grammatically correct. After the word پول, there is an unwritten sound stuck to ل,(similar to A  as pronounced in the phrase " a book") called KASRE or کسره in Persian which functions like the word OF in English language as it is used in the phrase "the leg OF the door". Thus we can say, it conveys a sort of possession similar to that of مال in the second sentence which eventually makes the two sentences somehow equal.

Answer

Both sentences are correct and sound natural :)

Answer

hi, both are correct and sound natural to me. I also add another phrase:
این پول کدام کشور است؟

Answer

Thank you all for very helpful answers! I appreciate you taking time to write the examples and explanations. Jacob

Answer

Hi Jacob
Both are natural to me, also you can say این واحد پول کدام کشور است
