- 1:1470x80, the section of 7080 .it that deepens the
- 1:19topics discussed on the portal. I'm with the
- 1:21journalist Enzo Mauri, who introduces the today's
- 1:25topic. Good morning, today I'm talking to you
- 1:27about banknotes. In the 70s, the Bank of Italy
- 1:30decided to print currency inspired by the painters
- 1:32of the past. Between 1976 and 1979, after those
- 1:37reaffirming historical figures, banknotes of
- 1:415 ,000, 10 ,000, 50 ,000 began to circulate.
- 1:43thousand and 100 thousand lire freely drawn from
- 1:45works by four hundredth -century painters also
- 1:47the style was different from the previous ones
- 1:50all the banknotes in fact tended to monochromaticism
- 1:53with a single predominant color brown for 5 ,000
- 1:56lire gray in the 10 ,000 blue in the 50 ,000
- 1:59and red in the 100 ,000 in addition to the presence
- 2:01of geometric motifs the face of antonello da
- 2:04messina appeared on the 5 ,000 lire banknotes
- 2:06in circulation from 1979 and up to 1989 the currency
- 2:11was treated by the the oil on the table, Duomo
- 2:14portrait. The work is kept at the National Gallery
- 2:16of London. The Duomo portrait of the Florentine
- 2:19painter Andrea del Castagno was depicted on the
- 2:2110 ,000 lire banknotes that remained in circulation
- 2:24from 1977 to 1988. Also in this case, the original
- 2:29is kept at the Washington National Gallery of
- 2:31Art. To dissuade the scammers, the banknotes
- 2:34contained a metal safety wire inside. All the
- 2:37emissions were printed on paper containing luminescent
- 2:40fibrils, some series of the four Bancorote are
- 2:43classified with the AAA for the particular numismatic
- 2:46value. The replacement series were used to replace
- 2:56those with manufacturing defects and to fill
- 2:59the voids in the mazes. Difficult to find are
- 3:02sought by collectors. Spread between 1977 and
- 3:061986, 50 ,000 lire banknotes reported a female
- 3:10face designed by the sculptor architect Guglielmo
- 3:13Savini. Also inspired by a work of art, the design
- 3:16was completely original. For this reason, a lady
- 3:18attempted a legal action against the Bank of
- 3:20Italy because, according to her, the face on
- 3:23the banknote was his. Obviously, he didn't win.
- 3:26The banknotes also presented a small imperfection
- 3:29on the reverse. The line that ran down under
- 3:31the numbering on the right side was discontinuous.
- 3:34A fraudster even came to correct the defect,
- 3:37however, making the false copies identifiable.
- 3:40The 100 ,000 lire issued in 1978 and in circulation
- 3:43for 10 years, represented on the left the head
- 3:46of one of the three Gratias inspired by the painting
- 3:48Spring by the Florentine painter Sandro Botticelli.
- 3:51The substitution series, contrasted with the
- 3:53X, emesse nel 1981, 83 e 84, sono classificate
- 3:59rarissime. Grazie a Denzo Mauri per il tema odierno.
