Exclusively, we bring you information about the latest release on the book market. It is a publication by authors Marcel Pecník and Peter Račko, dealing with the monetary reform in Czechoslovakia in 1919. On the ruins of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, the Czechoslovak state was established, operating on a democratic principle, marking the beginning of a new era in Slovak history. In March 1919, a fundamental monetary reform took place, resulting not only in retaining the name 'koruna' for the monetary system but also in its establishment in the newly formed state. The publication, subtitled 'Koruna at the Crossroads of History,' deals with the monetary reform, its significance, process, as well as further financial and economic development in the First Czechoslovak Republic. It also outlines the political and social situation before the collapse of the monarchy and the introduction of the koruna currency in 1892. A rich pictorial appendix offers views of period currencies, portraits of significant personalities, realities, and basic documents that shaped the development of banking. You will also find artistically exceptionally valuable currencies from the workshops of Alfons Mucha and Max Švabinský, who designed the motifs of the first Czechoslovak currencies. This excellent publication will be appreciated by all numismatists, economists, and history enthusiasts. Edition: I. Number of pages: 144 (hardcover) Author: PhDr. Marcel Pecník and Mgr. Peter Račko, PhD. Published: Banská Bystrica, 2019 Print run: 1,000 copies
