  • The Maltese Lira
    THE MALTESE LIRA On 16 May 1972, the Central Bank of Malta issued the first series of decimal coinage based on the Maltese Lira, at the time being roughly equivalent to the British Pound. Each Lira was divided in 100 cents (abbreviation of centesimo, meaning 1/100), while each cent was subdivided in 10 mills (abbreviation of millesimo, meaning 1/1000). The mills coins of the 1972 series - withdrawn from circulation in 1994 9 COINS AND 3 BANKNOTES Initially, a total of 8 coins were issued, namely the 50 cent, 10 cent, 5 cent, 2 cent, 1 cent, 5 mill, 3 mill and 2 mill. These coins were complemented by the issue of three banknotes, namely the 1 Lira, 5 Lira and 10 Lira, on 15 January 1973. Furthermore, a 25 cent coin was introduced in June 1975 to commemorate Malta becoming a Republic within the Commonwealth of Nation on 13 December 1974. This was the first coin to feature the coat of arms of the Republic of Malta on the reverse. NEW SERIES The obverse of the 1986/1991 series - withdrawn from circulation in January 2008 A new series was issued on 19 May 1986. This comprised 7 coins, namely the 1 Lira, 50 cent, 25 cent, 10 cent, 5 cent, 2 cent and 1 cent. Each coin depicted local fauna and flora on the The banknotes of the 1989 series - withdrawn from circulation in January 2008 obverse and the emblem of the Republic on the reverse. No mills were struck as part of this series, though the 5 mil, 3 mil and 2 mil coins issued in 1972 continued to have legal tender.

  • A Monetary History of the Former German Colony of Kiaochou
    A MONETARY HISTORY OF THE FORMER GERMAN COLONY OF KIAOCHOU John E. Sandrock After China’s crushing defeat by Great Britain and France in the two Opium Wars (1839-1842 and 1856-1858), the Ch’ing dynasty fell into great decline. After both of these events, the Manchu government was forced to sue for peace – the price of which proved to be very dear indeed. Great Britain and France, sensing the total collapse of civil rule in China, placed exorbitant demands upon China in the form of repatriations as laid down in the Treaty of Nanking. These took two distinct forms; the demand for monetary indemnity in silver for expenditures incurred in the war, and for the outright concession of Chinese territory. The Chinese eventually handed over twenty-one million ounces of silver to satisfy the former, and the island of Hong Kong to satisfy the latter. Thus the British territory of Hong Kong was created. This act proved the forerunner of additional demands for territorial concessions on the part of the European powers and Japan, who then proceeded to carve China up into various spheres of influence for commercial exploitation. French territorial ambitions centered upon south China. The British, in addition to their trading port of Hong Kong, sought the right to open additional Yangtze River ports to trade. Russia had ambitions for territorial expansion in the north, where she craved a warm water Russian port on the Liaotung peninsula as well as land in Manchuria. The Japanese, seizing upon the opportunity, laid claim to Korea and the offshore island of Taiwan, which was then renamed Formosa.

  • HARMONY Or HARMONEY
    Niklot Kluessendorf Harmony in money – one money for one country ICOMON e-Proceedings (Shanghai, 2010) 4 (2012), pp. 1-5 Downloaded from: www.icomon.org Harmony in money – one money for one country Niklot Klüßendorf Amöneburg, Germany [email protected] This paper discusses the German reforms from 1871 to 1876 for 26 States with different monetary traditions. Particular attention is paid to the strategy of compromise that produced harmony, notwithstanding the different traditions, habits and attitudes to money. Almost everybody found something in the new system that was familiar. The reform included three separate legal elements: coinage, government paper money and banknotes, and was carried out in such a way to avoid upsetting the different parties. Under the common roof of the new monetary unit, traditional and regional elements were preserved, eg in coin denominations, design, and even in the colours of banknotes. The ideas of compromise were helpful to the mental acceptance of the new money. As money and its tradition are rooted in the habits and feelings of the people, the strategy of creating harmony has to be taken into consideration for many monetary reforms. So the German reforms were a good example for the euro that was introduced with a similar spirit for harmony among the participating nations. New currencies need intensive preparation covering political, economic and technical aspects, and even psychological planning. The introduction of the euro was an outstanding example of this. The compromise between national and supranational ideas played an important role during the creation of a single currency for Europe. Euro banknotes, issued by the European Central Bank, demonstrate the supranational idea.

  • Explaining the September 1992 ERM Crisis: the Maastricht Bargain and Domestic Politics in Germany, France, and Britain
    Explaining the September 1992 ERM Crisis: The Maastricht Bargain and Domestic Politics in Germany, France, and Britain Explaining the September 1992 ERM Crisis: The Maastricht Bargain and Domestic Politics in Germany, France, and Britain Christina R. Sevilla Harvard University Dept. of Government Cambridge, MA 02138 [email protected] Presented at the European Community Studies Association, Fourth Biennial International Conference, May 11-14, 1995, Charleston, SC. Comments welcome. In September of 1992, the seemingly inexorable movement of the European exchange rate mechanism from a system of quasi-fixed exchange rates towards monetary union and ultimately a common currency by the end of the decade was abruptly preempted, perhaps indefinitely. Massive speculative pressure on the eve of the French referendum precipitated the worst crisis in the thirteen- year history of the European Monetary System, resulting in the ejection of the sterling and the lira from the ERM, the devaluation of the peseta, the threat of forced devaluation of several other currencies, including the "hard-core" franc, and the abandonment or near-abandonment of unilateral currency pegs to the system by non-ERM countries. Together with political recriminations and blame-laying between Britain and Germany in the aftermath, the crisis represented a tremendous blow to the goals of political and economic integration recently affirmed by EC member governments in the Maastricht Treaty on European Union in December 1991. Nevertheless, conventional wisdom at the time dictated a more sanguine assessment of the prospects for EMU, in the belief that the strains within the ERM were due to the unfortunate confluence of exceptional circumstances -- the shock of German reunification, a debt-driven recession in Britain, and the uncertainties caused by the Danish and French referendums on Maastricht.

  • V. Exchange Rates and Capital Flows in Industrial Countries
    V. Exchange rates and capital flows in industrial countries Highlights Two themes already evident in 1995 persisted in the foreign exchange market last year. The first was the strengthening of the US dollar, in two phases. In spite of continuing trade deficits, the dollar edged up for much of 1996 as market participants responded to its interest rate advantage, and the prospect of its increasing further. Then, towards the end of the year, the dollar rose sharply against the Deutsche mark and the Japanese yen as the US economic expansion demonstrated its vigour. A firming of European currencies against the mark and the Swiss franc accompanied the rise of the dollar. This helped the Finnish markka to join and the Italian lira to rejoin the ERM in October and November respectively. Stronger European currencies and associated lower bond yields both anticipated and made more likely the introduction of the euro, the second theme of the period under review. Market participants clearly expect the euro to be introduced: forward exchange rates point to exchange rate stability among a number of currencies judged most likely to join monetary union. Foreign exchange markets thereby stand to lose up to 10¤% of global transactions, and have begun to refocus on the rapidly growing business of trading emerging market currencies. Possible shifts in official reserve management with the introduction of the euro have preoccupied market commentators, but changes in private asset management and global liability management could well prove more significant. Even then, it is easy to overstate the effect of any such portfolio shifts on exchange rates.

    First law on currency reform (20 June 1948) Caption: On 20 June 1948, the first law on currency reform in the US, British and French occupation zones specifies the conditions for the introduction of the new German currency, the Deutschmark. Source: United States-Department of State. Documents on Germany 1944-1985. Washington: Department of State, [s.d.]. 1421 p. (Department of State Publication 9446). p. 147-148.

The old German currency is hereby invalidated. The new currency will be the deutsche mark which will be divided into 100 deutsche pfennig. The old money, the reichsmark, the rentenmark and mark notes issued in Germany by the Allied Military authorities, will become invalid on June 21. The only exceptions are old mark notes and coins up to a denomination of one mark. In order to prevent a temporary shortage of small change, these small notes and coins will remain in use until further notice at one tenth their old or nominal value. Nobody, however, need accept more than 50 pieces of small change in payment of any kind. Postage stamps will also remain valid at one tenth their nominal value.
