Propaganda coins and banknotes are money whose design does persuasive work beyond payment: a ruler's portrait, a slogan, a map, a claim of victory or a vote share. Every user handles the object daily. The collection holds 26 coins, notes and related items from AD 37 to 2015, tagged by issuer, audience and technique.

See [the Soviet Union regime page](https://propagandaarchive.org/regimes/soviet-union/). ## How did towns use emergency money before a vote in 1921? After the First World War, municipalities and provinces printed emergency money, called Notgeld, and some used it to campaign. All three notes below were issued around plebiscites in 1921, by German and Austrian issuers. **Content note:** German emergency note of 1921 from the Upper Silesia plebiscite campaign, with a rhyme using 'murderer-boys and bandits' beside a map of the voting area, shown as printed.

It tags transfer. ![Crusade for Freedom advertisement, "Invest a Truth Dollar in Radio Free Europe", 1954](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/images/truth-dollar-1954.jpg) ## What have coins and banknotes carried since 1954?

The entry records that the station was funded mainly by the US government through the CIA until 1971, while the appeal asked the public for donations. It tags narrative laundering, glittering generalities and transfer. [Read the technique: narrative laundering](https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/narrative-laundering/).

The reverse of the 1979 ten-dollar note of the Reserve Bank of Rhodesia, printed with the ruins of Great Zimbabwe. The entry records that the monument's origin was contested between the government's official line and African nationalists, and that the Zimbabwe bird later appeared on the flag and arms of independent Zimbabwe in 1980. The note carries no text about origins. The entry tags transfer. A 10000-manat note of the Central Bank of Turkmenistan, 1996, with a portrait of President Saparmurat Niyazov. The entry tags transfer and cult of personality. [Read the technique: cult of personality](https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/cult-of-personality/). See [Turkmenistan under Niyazov](https://propagandaarchive.org/regimes/turkmenistan-niyazov-berdimuhamedov/). A gold-coloured coin photographed in 2015, issued by the Islamic State, which announced a gold dinar system modelled by its own account on early Islamic coinage. A ring of wheat ears sits inside a woven border with the numerals for 1437. The coin carries no slogan in this view; only the reverse was available under a clear licence. The entry tags transfer, resting on the issuer's framing of the coinage as a revival of early gold currency. ## How do the objects compare? The same technique appears across issuers. Transfer, the attachment of borrowed authority, is tagged on 18 of the 26 objects, from Kanishka's god to the Iranian, Turkmen and Soviet notes. The differences are in scale and context: a Roman denarius circulated through a mint's output, a Notgeld note through one town's cash drawer, and a 1996 national note through a central bank. Some objects here are not state money at all: an unrecognised government's bond, an army's notes, a non-state group's coin and an advertisement. The tag records what the object does. ## Propaganda coins and banknotes in the collection Showing 26 of 26 objects.
