Maybank Numismatic Museum, Numismatic museum at Menara Maybank in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

The first-floor museum exhibits an extensive collection of coins and banknotes from Malaysia and neighboring countries, arranged in chronological display cases.

The museum, inaugurated in 1988 by Bank Negara Governor Tan Sri Dato Jaafar Hussein, documents the evolution of currency from the Malacca Sultanate through colonial periods.

The exhibition features a traditional Kelantan coin tree, demonstrating how tin coins were cast and connected together in branch-like formations.

Located near Plaza Rakyat LRT Station, the museum opens daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, excluding public holidays, with free admission for all visitors.

The collection includes special currency created for the Sungai Buloh Leprosarium in 1935, designed to prevent disease transmission through regular money circulation.
