Maybank Numismatic Museum
The Maybank Numismatic Museum is located on the first floor of
Menara Maybank at Jalan Tun Perak. It is situated near Pudu Raya Bus
Terminal in KL.
Set up in 1988, the Maybank Numismatic Museum was set up to preserve the country's currency heritage. It houses an impressive collection of coins and notes from the time of early Malaya until the present day.
There is a collection of local and regional coins and notes, and interestingly, some dating back to the Melaka Sultanate. The museum also serves as a centre for research into Malaysia's numismatic history.
Visitors are not allowed to take photographs, but there are postcards and brochures depicting the collection.
