From September 2 on the channel "Inter" - the premiere. "The Great Adventures of Ukrainian Money" is the title of a two-part film by Mark Gres. After watching it, you will learn a lot of interesting and informative about domestic coins and banknotes from their first appearance to the present day.
The monetary chronicle from hryvnia to hryvnia in Mark Gres's exposition turned out to be a chronicle of the century, and not only money. Because reading the history of the country not from textbooks, but from banknotes and coins of different times is a fascinating and informative activity. We still remember something ourselves - as direct participants in the "Pavlov" reform and the subsequent search for their money through "sheets" of coupons and million-dollar bills. Much less is known to non-specialists about the circulation of money and securities that perform the function of money in our territories in the first half of the last century. It is a pity that the volume of archival materials is not as large as we would like. "The Wedding in Malinovka" is, of course, a vivid illustration of the story of the "universal equivalent" of the Civil War period, but it is too blurred. But to think of printing money on the "shirt" of playing cards could, probably, really only in Odessa.
In general, different means of payment "inherited" in our history. One thing unites them: the almost mystical affection of users. And money as a symbol of the state and as an instrument of political and geopolitical processes has always been used, is used now and will be used in the future.
