NumisMaster: Czech Republic Bank Notes
Explore Czech Republic bank notes designed by artist Oldřich Kulhánek—masterpieces blending national heritage, artistry, and modern security features.
Among the vast selection of bank notes that have been uploaded and updated on NumisMaster, the database holds a growing collection of paper currency from the Czech Republic, also known as Czechia. The central European nation has issued its own currency since 1993 and may adopt the Euro in the near future.
Below are some selections from NumisMaster that highlight the work of Czech artist Oldřich Kulhánek (1940–2013). First introduced in 1993 and still in use today, the notes’ faces feature portraits of famous Czech persons, while the reverses show architectural and cultural scenes. All integrate security features that have been updated throughout the years.
