Bangladesh Bank (BB) Governor Dr Atiur Rahman inaugurated ‘Numismatic Exhibition-2012’ at the Dhaka GPO Friday, hoping that people, specially the children, will have an atypical scope to learn history, heritage, culture from the exhibition of currencies and coins of different countries.

“It is certainly an exceptional event because this numismatic exhibition will help visitors lean history, heritage and culture of a country and its people. I think people, especially the children, will enjoy a sort of arty pleasure,” said the governor while opening the two-day event as chief guest.

Numismatic Collectors’ Society (NCS) organised the exhibition. Director General of Bangladesh Postal Department Nayed Delwar Hussain also spoke on the occasion. —BSS
