Numismatics

Numismatics is the scientific study of old and modern money. The Greek name “nomisma” (ancient Greek: νομισματική) means mint or money. The discipline also includes phaleristics (study of the history and design of medals) and scripophily (collection of stock certificates, bonds and fiscal documents). Numismatic items are grouped, stored and handled in numismatic collections. The numismatic collection of the National Bank of Serbia is handled by the Numismatic Team of the Cash Department.
