Description
Symbols of sovereignty, currencies represent a rational means allowing contact between people. They define the relationships between individuals and communities. They are considered irrefutable documents and therefore a basic element in the writing of economic, social, artistic and military history.
Algerian coins from the Ottoman period are made in several metals such as Gold, Silver, Bronze and Lead. They feature very elegant ornamental motifs and Arabic characters as well as the place and date on which they were minted.
