Catherine Eagleton with the British Museum provides an update for the much anticipated new Citi Money Gallery project. The partnership between Citi and the British Museum will represent a new way of thinking about the history of money and coinage. Ms. Eagleton states, “The gallery will use money as a lens through which to look at the history of the world, as well as showing the different forms and functions money has taken and had around the world in the last 3,000 years…” The Museum also notes the new the Citi Money Gallery will make changes to the design and content of the displays, and take advantage of new knowledge and new ideas in museology and monetary history.
