Georgia Banknotes Catalog
The history of Georgian banknotes reflects the economic and political evolution of the country. Since its independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, Georgia has undergone several changes in its currency, moving from the Soviet ruble to the Georgian coupon and finally to the lari.
Current banknotes in circulation
Currently, Georgian lari banknotes have been in circulation since 1995. Denominations include 1, 2, 5, 10, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 lari. These banknotes feature portraits of Georgian historical figures and landmarks of the country. The latest design, introduced in 2016, incorporates advanced security features such as holograms and color-changing inks.
Old banknotes and relevant facts.
Prior to the lari, Georgia used the Georgian coupon from 1993 to 1995 as a temporary currency. This period was characterized by severe hyperinflation, which led to the issuance of banknotes with extremely high denominations. An important milestone in Georgian notafilia was the introduction of the lari in 1995, which marked the beginning of monetary stability in the country. The first lari banknotes featured a simpler design compared to current issues, reflecting Georgia's rapid economic transition.
