Uzbek coinage

1966

Coinage in Uzbekistan is the oldest art of artistic metalworking with the help of special tools, rooted in the times of the Bronze Age. Even then, ancient craftsmen and artists covered plastic metal with elaborate patterns.

In Uzbekistan, the masters of coinage are called "rehtagar". Rehtagar's work is a complex process that requires knowledge, skills and, of course, talent. The technique of coinage is divided into regions and craftsmen from different cities use their own style, ornament and manufacturing technique. Узбекская чеканка
