History reference:
The single monetary unit used in internal and, in part, in external settlements of Georgia is the Georgian lari. The name of the currency comes from the Georgian word, which means "property" or "rese...rve" in Russian. Previously, before the collapse of the USSR and the separation of Georgia, the banknotes of the USSR, Soviet rubles, were used in calculations, then they were temporarily replaced by Georgian coupons. However, the use of coupons in Georgia lasted only 4 years - in 1995, by a decree of President Shevardnadze, the lari was introduced into circulation. The design of banknotes was entrusted by the Central Bank to European designers, in particular, French and Slovak craftsmen made their contribution. The currency of Georgia contains images of cultural figures and national heroes, and on the reverse, the reverse side of banknotes and coins, there are images of architectural and art monuments belonging to Georgia.
