The State Bank of Pakistan inaugurated its money museum on Friday, July 1, 2011. With a fascinating collection which charts the rise of money over 2500 years, the place offers a wonderful insight into the sub-continents of economy. From cowries to credit cards, metal sculptures and murals by the great master Sadequain, the SBP money museum is a welcome addition in the city by the sea. – Photos and text by Sumera Adil.
