Metamorphoses of Money

Visit Our Project Booth at the Salon Sophie Charlotte

Money means power. It has existed for thousands of years and has taken many forms – from shells and metal ingots to coins , paper money, and crypto currencies. Its symbolism and perception, as well as its functions, have also undergone numerous transformations.
The presentation focuses on ancient coins, which served not only as universal means of exchange and payment but also as tools of communication and objects of visual art, reflecting the history, culture, and transformations of their time. Additionally, it highlights the evolution of coin research—from the study of ancient originals and reproductions to counterfeit detection and AI-supported analysis.
