«Esto es dinero: De los orígenes al euro» is the catalogue of the exhibition on monetary history, published by Fundación Barrié in paperback (183 pages).
The catalogue explains that money was not always coinage: agricultural products, shells and livestock (hence the term 'pecunia') served as a unit of value, means of payment and instrument of exchange. It traces Spanish monetary history with its most representative coins, from the 5th century BC to the peseta, and ends with minting in Galicia.
It is the catalogue of the exhibition held in A Coruña from 9 November to 30 December 2001. It includes 133 illustrations and bibliographic references.
A work of interest to enthusiasts of economic history, numismatics and the cultural heritage of Galicia.
