  • Kissi Penny, Salt and Manilla: Traditional Money in Africa
    Kissi Penny, Salt and Manilla: Traditional Money in Africa The attempt to pack the various means of payment differing from western coins into one term is ethnocentric, and moreover rather difficult. For many years, the expression "primitive money" has been ordinary. This name is, even though unfortunate, regrettably still frequent. The common name "pre- coinage currencies" is more neutral, but insufficient for uncoined forms of money, as it refers to means of payment before the development of coins, to cultural-historical pre-stages of coined money thus. Yet uncoined forms of money form a much wider field: Its most important and long-lasting representative was the cowry currency, which circulated in many countries parallel to coins; in some places, cowry shells were even a fixed denomination within the currency system. Also often used, but wrongly so, it the term "natural money" for uncoined forms of money. Yet manilas, Katanga crosses and many other uncoined monies are made from metal, and thus not more natural than western gold and silver coins. In fact, natural money is a specific level of development of these means of payment, just as tool money, ornamental money, and bar money. To pay tribute to the diversity of uncoined forms of money, the MoneyMuseum compiles these means of payment under the term "traditional money." Such currencies were developed in virtually all cultures. With the following tour, we will introduce a small selection of African forms. 1 von 16 www.sunflower.ch Cowrie Shell Cypraea moneta Denomination: Cypraea moneta (Money Cowrie) Mint Authority: Mint: Year of Issue: 1900 Weight (g): 2.9 Diameter (mm): 22.0 Material: Others Owner: Sunflower Foundation Cowrie shells were used as money in China, India, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, the Maldives, in New Guinea, the Pacific and in Africa for centuries.

  • Ring Money, Tea and Beetles' Legs: Traditional Money in Asia and Elsewhere
    Ring Money, Tea and Beetles' Legs: Traditional Money in Asia and elsewhere The most original form of trade was barter: the exchange of goods for other goods, or of goods for services. If the desired commodity could not be exchanged directly, some other item – something everyone wanted, something convenient and lasting – was used as medium of exchange. Under different geographical, climatic and political conditions, the diverse cultures thus created various forms of coins and currencies. 1 von 26 www.sunflower.ch Africa, Bundle of Paludina Shells Denomination: Ten Strings of Paludina Snails Mint Authority: Undefined Mint: Undefined Year of Issue: 1800 Weight (g): 80 Diameter (mm): 272.0 Material: Others Owner: Sunflower Foundation Money consisting of snail shells or seashells (mollusk money) is used by many cultures. Sometimes from the entire shell, sometimes from parts of them, takes that form of money all imaginable shapes. The use of shells as money is not limited to any particular part of the world; in one form or another it is well-nigh universal. 2 von 26 www.sunflower.ch Africa to Asia, Cowrie Shell Cypraea annulus Denomination: Cypraea annulus (Ring Cowrie) Mint Authority: Mint: Year of Issue: 1900 Weight (g): 3.42 Diameter (mm): 22.0 Material: Others Owner: Sunflower Foundation Cowries are sea shells living in more than 200 varieties in warm oceans. They were used as coins in Asia, Africa and Oceania for over 3500 years: Around 1500 BC, cowries were circulating as means of exchange in the Chinese lands; and in 1960 a Dutch expedition in New Guinea was confronted with the problem of having to pay their bearers a considerable amount of cowrie shells.
