Czechoslovakia - 10 Korun - P-94b - Foreign Paper Money

Inv# FM3198   Foreign Paper Money
Country: Czechoslovakia
Years: 1986

10 Korun, P-94b. Very colorful note! A currency called the krone in German and koruna in Czech was introduced in Austria-Hungary on 11 September 1892, as the first modern gold-based currency in the area. After the creation of an independent Czechoslovakia in 1918, an urgent need emerged for the establishment of a new currency system that would distinguish itself from the currencies of the other newly born countries suffering from inflation. The next year, on 10 April 1919, a currency reform took place, defining the new koruna as equal in value to the Austro-Hungarian krone. The first banknotes came into circulation the same year, the coins three years later, in 1922.

This first koruna circulated until 1939, when separate currencies for Bohemia and Moravia and Slovakia were introduced, at par with the Czechoslovak koruna. These were the Bohemian and Moravian koruna and the Slovak koruna. Read more at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czechoslovak_koruna
