Ancient banknotes and milestones in Egyptian note-keeping

The first modern Egyptian banknotes were introduced in 1899 by the National Bank of Egypt. Throughout the 20th century, Egypt underwent several changes to its banknotes, including the introduction of the Egyptian pound in 1916. An important milestone was the nationalization of the National Bank of Egypt in 1960, which led to new banknote designs that reflected the Egyptian national identity. In 1961, the first banknote with Arabic text was issued, marking a significant change in the history of Egyptian notafilia.
