The history of silver coins in Lithuania is a fascinating journey through the country's rich and diverse past. From the medieval times of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania to the contemporary era, silver coins have played a significant role in the economic and cultural development of the region.
During the time of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (13th century – 1795), silver coins were an essential part of the monetary system. The most notable coins from this period are the Lithuanian denars, which were minted in the 14th and 15th centuries. These coins featured various symbols, including the Columns of Gediminas and the knight on horseback, which are iconic representations of Lithuanian heritage.
After Lithuania regained its independence in 1918, the country introduced its own currency, the Lithuanian litas, in 1922. Silver coins were an important part of the litas currency system. The most common silver coins during this period were the 1, 2, and 5 litas coins, which depicted national symbols and prominent figures in Lithuanian history.
