I don't know how much money that is, but here in the USA - I've heard inflation for the tooth fairies has gone crazy. Nice idea, exposure and composition.

Dang - must be the evil expansionist/imperial tooth fairy, then. The worldwide conglomerate tooth fairy - not happy with the simple process evolved by the traditional tooth fairy over millennia, resorts to morally dubious means, though remaining within the letter of the written law, to drive an increase in turnover in a business beset by improving dental medication and care. Analysts at Thrust Clench and Grasp, city stockbrokers, expressed their approval.

Technically, I think your image could perhaps have benefited from a clearer depiction of location - at this closeness, it isn't really clear what these surfaces are. Control of light could have been better too - the highlights are a touch harsh, and composition is a bit blunt and lacking finesse. But it's a neat twist, all the same. 7

Looks like candy money. Plus its hard to tell its even under a pillow. I like the idea, but would have liked it better with some real money and a better composition

I just wanted to suggest that better lighting would really have enhanced this photograph. Nice try!
