Money Museum special exhibition and No. 1 new bill
A new banknote was issued on July 3rd. special exhibition's "New Bank of Japan Ticket 2024: Takumi's Skills and Design" is being held at the Money Museum in Nihonbashi Honishi-cho.
In addition to appreciating the design of the new bill, which will be renewed for the first time in 20 years, you can experience the latest forgery prevention technology such as the world's first "3D hologram" and the "high-definition plowing" with a fine background. I am once again amazed at the skill of Japanese banknotes.

In the permanent exhibition, you can learn the history of money (money) from the ancient coin "Wado Kaichin" to Edo, Meiji, and the present day. You can experience the real size of large-sized gold coins made by Hideyoshi Toyotomi and Ieyasu Tokugawa as well as the weight of a thousand boxes, as well as various Bank of Japan tickets issued to Meiji period.
There's also a lot of pamphlets.
