Link profile: Casa de la Moneda

Category: Start / Great Cities of Spain / Madrid / Museums
This Museum of the Spanish Mint was completely renovated in the nineties and is now almost completely admirable (plus, it will appeal to the casually interested and numismatically expert alike, and is unmonetarily priced, i.e., free). Its collection of coins, banknotes and other objects such as lottery tickets is enormous, claimed to be the most important of its kind in the world, and nearly impeccably presented, everything being placed faultlessly in context. The visit begins with pre-coin currencies: shells, pressed tea leaves, cereals... and continues through Greek, Carthaginian, Roman, indeed, all the great eras of Spanish and world history, ending, naturally, with plastic money and the euro.
