متحف العملات, Currency museum at Saudi Central Bank, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
The Currency Museum displays an extensive collection of coins and banknotes across five exhibition halls within the Saudi Central Bank headquarters building.
Two rare silver dirhams from 782 CE and 896 CE, minted in Al-Yamamah and Mecca respectively, represent significant monetary artifacts from early Islamic periods.
The museum exhibits showcase the evolution of Saudi Arabian currency from pilgrim receipts to modern banknotes, reflecting the economic development of the nation.
The museum provides educational tours and interactive displays that help visitors identify security features on current banknotes through specialized guidance tools.
The third gallery contains wall-mounted chronological displays representing each century with diverse monetary pieces from different historical periods.
