Based on a simple google search, I've found the meaning for Currency and Money which has a lot of difference but any currency can be money but not all money can be a currency.
Currency is a medium of exchange for goods and services. In short, it's money, in the form of paper or coins, usually issued by a government and generally accepted at its face value as a method of payment.
