Besides bartering with commodities when there was a lack of sufficient official money in the Dutch colony, an alternative form of money was created in 1761 by using playing cards. These were signed and stamped by an authority and given a value.<\/p>\n<p>The first coins that were made in 1679 are called the <em>papagaaimunt <\/em>(parrot coin), so named because a parrot is sitting on a branch. The history also mentions the first bank being founded in Suriname, the de Particuliere West Indische Bank (the Private Bank of the West Indies). The De Surinaamche Bank acted as a circulation bank until the Central Bank of Suriname was founded on April 1, 1957.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-104j60v4-e56c37511075a76d5832636c77868998\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-104j60v4-e56c37511075a76d5832636c77868998{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-104j60v4-e56c37511075a76d5832636c77868998 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-lu8aqjdc-40c182c4853d04c9d95131f12d6783e7 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>Coins<\/h2>\n<p>Most of the coins that circulated in Suriname are on display in the Museum. The oldest coin on display that circulated in the Dutch Guiana colony is the uniface 1679 4-duit, or \u201cParrot Coin.\u201d The Parrot Coin, was named for the parrot on the obverse which is seated on a branch with 1, 2 or 4 leaves. They were drawn with the number 1, 2 or 4, which indicated that they were valued at 1, 2 or 4 pounds of sugar worth one penny per pound. Another early coin on display is the 1764 Society of Suriname duit.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-sig1480-40f0f98f8f81ea1454e5664717df5db5\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-sig1480-40f0f98f8f81ea1454e5664717df5db5{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-sig1480-40f0f98f8f81ea1454e5664717df5db5 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-lu8aqy2a-ecd858c7387c2aa925c46854013d21cb '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>Paper money<\/h2>\n<p>The display of paper money includes banknotes from the colonial era issued by the De Surinaamsche Bank through independence, the change in 1957 by the Central Bank of Suriname to issue the banknotes with its <em>muntbiljet <\/em>(literally, \u201cmint notes\u201d), and the redenomination of its currency in 2004 from the guilder to the Surinamese dollar.
