The Secrets of Banknotes. Legends and Facts

The Secrets of Banknotes. Legends and Facts

We rarely think about how much interesting information passes through our wallets and purses. The minimum information that can be gleaned from a drawing, if a building is depicted on a banknote, includes the time and place of its construction,... the name of the architect, and the circumstances under which it was built. A scene with an animal or a bird is enough to identify their name and species, and to learn where they live. A portrait of a person will allow us to find out everything about their personality, activities, and achievements. Moreover, it will tell us about the era they called their own.
For a wide audience.
