Casa de Moneda

TIME : 2016/2/19 15:04:32

This historic museum inside the Banco de la República complex houses the Colección Numismática . The exhibits start with pre-Columbian exchanges of pots and lead chronologically to misshapen coins, the introduction of a centralized bank in 1880, and the making of the cute tree art on the current 500 peso coin in the late 1990s.
