Czechoslovakia Banknotes Catalog

The history of banknotes in Czechoslovakia is fascinating and reflects the country's political and economic changes throughout the 20th century. From its founding in 1918 until its dissolution in 1993, Czechoslovakia issued a variety of banknotes representing its national identity and cultural values.

Old Czechoslovak banknotes

The first Czechoslovak banknotes were issued in 1919, shortly after the country's founding. The Czechoslovak koruna became the official currency, replacing the Austro-Hungarian koruna. During the interwar period, banknotes featured elaborate designs with patriotic motifs and important historical figures. The Nazi occupation during World War II briefly interrupted the issuance of national banknotes, but after 1945, Czechoslovakia resumed production of its own currency.

Modern banknotes and transition

After the fall of communism in 1989, Czechoslovakia underwent a significant economic transformation. Banknotes issued in the 1990s reflected this new era of democracy and capitalism. However, the division of Czechoslovakia in 1993 marked the end of the Czechoslovak koruna. The Czech Republic and Slovakia established their own currencies, with the Czech koruna and Slovak koruna respectively. Today, these Czechoslovak banknotes are sought after by collectors as a testament to a nation that no longer exists, but whose history remains relevant in modern Europe.
