Besides ensuring you have an enjoyable and entertaining experience, our ambition is to provide you with a foundation for understanding the basic ideas about money and a historical perspective.

Hopefully, you will be encouraged to seek much more knowledge about economics and get a handle on your own.

Some of the economic themes that there is not room for in the exhibition, the museum will expand in an events program in 2023.

Yes, you are always welcome to bring children to all the National Museum's exhibitions. The presentation in KA-CHING is especially aimed at older children and young people from 10 years and up.

The special exhibition, KA-CHING!, is free with an entrance ticket or a NATKLUB card. Children under 18 years always have free admission to the museum.

No, unfortunately. At the present time, it is difficult to participate in the game in a wheelchair.

The National Museum plans for KA-CHING! to be available to experience for the next 6 years.

It's the sound of our desire for money and coins clinking in the cash register. Today, the term is used in many parts of the world as an exclamation of joy over the prospect of scoring a big win.

In the exhibition, you can see some of the first coins in the world and examples of the coins that were made in Denmark from around the year 1000.

In addition, one can see other types of money, especially from Asia and Africa, coins with special religious or symbolic value, and saved treasures.

Among other things, there is a selection of the oldest coins in Europe. A coin from the kingdom of Lydia minted in 600 BC. We also display a coin minted under Emperor Augustus (Emperor 31 BC – 14 AD) with a picture of the emperor. Witten coins from the Hanseatic cities, a cuneiform tablet from Mesopotamia (Iraq) about 2000 years BC, sceattas from the 700s (the first coins that were made within what is now Denmark) and a coin with the inscription "SVEN REX AD DENER" (Sven king over the Danes). The coin was made in Lund under Sven Forkbeard, around the year 1000.

In the exhibition, you can also see, among other things, the world's largest minted medal from 1686, which celebrates the Danish victory in the naval battle in Køge Bay on July 1, 1677.

The purpose of the game is to give you an understanding that you need to work, orient yourself broadly, and acquire knowledge to do well financially.

Just like in real life, some things are left to chance, while others are about improving oneself.

In broad terms - there are no easy solutions to money.

The National Museum has a large collection of coins and medals, which we would like to update and bring into play.

Because the history of money is a significant chapter in our cultural history. Humans have always traded with each other, and in that way, the history of money is almost as long as that of humanity.

Whether we like it or not, money largely governs our lives. Therefore, it is important to reflect - both on our own personal finances and on the economic system of society.

The museum has extensive research in numismatics, but for the part of the exhibition that deals with modern economics, banking, and money creation, the museum has consulted economists, educators, and other experts.
