If you would like to learn more about the special objects in our money collection, join us for a guided tour with one of our curators to give your visit greater depth. Find out why even today we can still learn so much from objects of the past. Why do we see King Willem Alexander on Dutch euro coins? What do leaves and music have in common with banknotes? How did the Romans use coins as a means of communication? Our curators will help you look at the history of money from a different perspective and show why the lessons of the past are still relevant today.
