NUMISMATIC COLLECTION FROM THE 15TH CENTURY UNTIL TODAY
This collection is a part of numismatic collection. Contains coins, banknotes (paper money), money substitutes (tokens, vouchers). This numismatic material is of domestic and foreign origin. There are interesting examples of Turkish money that testify to the centuries-old rule of the Ottoman Empire. The funds contain copies of the first modern Serbian money issued in 1868. There is a banknote of 1000 dinars from 1931 (Kingdom of Yugoslavia), which is considered the most beautiful Yugoslav banknote, and the artistic solution for it was made by the famous painter Paja Jovanović. The collection also includes money from socialist Yugoslavia, the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro, and the Republic of Serbia. Jagodina also contributed to numismatics. The collection includes three series of tokens issued by the Klefiš factory before and after the First World War. It is interesting to mention the Austro-Hungarian banknote of 100 crowns from 1912 with the seal of the commander of the Belički district, which was in circulation after the First World War until the establishment of a single currency in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. There are also the first banknotes of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes from 1919, on which there is a facsimile of the signature of Momcilo Ninčić (1876-1949), a prominent Serbian and Yugoslav politician who was born in Jagodina.
