class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Are you interested in coins of Spain and the Hispanic world? Then we have an important address for you: the Museum of the Casa de la Moneda in Madrid, which is located on the premises of the Spanish mint.<\/p>\n<p>There are various reasons why public numismatic collections and museums of monetary history came into being. First, there is the classic case of so-called coin cabinets that have their roots in princely (occasionally also bourgeois) collections, which were often created for representational purposes. The Munich Coin Cabinet is a perfect example of this. But the collections of Gotha in Germany, the Biblioth\u00e8que nationale in France, and the Museo Nazionale Romano in Italy were also originally owned by a ruling house.<\/p>\n<p>Then, of course, there are exhibitions at central banks, which demonstrate the importance of central banks to the general public by displaying numismatic objects. The Money Museum of the Deutsche Bundesbank in Frankfurt is an excellent example of this type.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, there are a few museums whose core collection was created by a mint, to serve as inspiration for new engravers. The museum we are presenting to you in this issue belongs to this category: the Museum of the Casa de la Moneda in Madrid. The Spanish mint is still responsible for this museum today. It has an impressive collection, and is one of the most important museums of its kind in the world!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-11yqet-efb7b7b8c2b4757eb7b191d5b5b8c1bd\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-11yqet-efb7b7b8c2b4757eb7b191d5b5b8c1bd{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-11yqet-efb7b7b8c2b4757eb7b191d5b5b8c1bd hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-12  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-m6rqts9k-033437b0e82516f0a268fe0a8fddb897 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>A die-cutter and his idea<\/h2>\n<p>The creator of the museum was Tom\u00e1s Francisco Prieto (1716-1782) who was Chief Engraver of the Royal Mint under King Charles III. He also held the position of Director of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando. It was therefore important to him that future artists were trained not only in painting, architecture, and sculpture, but also in the art of engraving. To this end, in 1771 he laid the foundations for a regular training program for engravers, which would come to be used by countless engravers from Spain and its former overseas colonies.<\/p>\n<p>So how should these young and inexperienced die-cutters be trained? The best way was to show them as much material as possible and encourage them to imitate it. Prieto himself owned a collection of coins and medals, as well as numismatic books containing coin illustrations. The Spanish Crown acquired this collection from Prieto\u2019s widow after his death so that it could continue to be used to train engravers. In 1784, Prieto\u2019s collection was merged with the museum holdings of the Royal Mint.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-8g0x85-65315966aeb7909a1087392f136e4453\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-8g0x85-65315966aeb7909a1087392f136e4453{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-8g0x85-65315966aeb7909a1087392f136e4453 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-m6rqtzi9-37f03ff3f966b1fbcfdae16ec52543ba '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>From collection to museum<\/h2>\n<p>In the 19th century, numismatics was a favourite pursuit in educated society. After all, everyone who was anyone collected. And thus it was decided to put the library and collection of the Spanish mint on public display. This happened for the first time in 1867, and from then on the collection was open to the public in the old Spanish Mint building on Columbus Square in Madrid. It remained there until the new money-making building was inaugurated in 1964. In 1965, the new, expanded exhibition of the magnificent Mint Museum opened. Today it is one of the many attractions of the Spanish capital. If you are visiting Madrid, do not miss out on a visit. You can access it from Calle del Doctor Esquerdo, at the back of the Mint building. You will be impressed by the quality of the exhibits!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-7o69jp-e46f564bdaa6b1132e19e3ec4721605f\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-7o69jp-e46f564bdaa6b1132e19e3ec4721605f{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-7o69jp-e46f564bdaa6b1132e19e3ec4721605f hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-m6rqubc8-def579d049bafa756b498a2ba335c027 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>What can you see at the Mint Museum of Madrid?<\/h2>\n<p>Do not expect to see just a few showcases full of coins! In 17 rooms, the Mint Museum tells the story of money and of the other products of its house. You will of course find rare coins, artistic medals, and pre-monetary forms of currency, but also banknotes, sketches and prints. Perhaps most impressive is the large number of minting tools that have found their way into the museum, and the excellent models that illustrate how minting took place.<\/p>\n<p>And then there is the philately department. The official title of the Madrid mint is FNMT. This stands for F\u00e1brica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre, i.e. National Mint and Stamp Factory. Yes, Spanish stamps are also produced at the Royal Mint, and there is a corresponding exhibition in the Mint Museum.<\/p>\n<p>But there is much more, because as a production centre for security printing, the FNMT is also responsible for lottery tickets.
