Krause & Mishler's "Standard Catalog of World Coins" lists the denominations issued in this currency as 1 puli, 2 puli, 1 bisti, ½ abazi, 1 abazi and 2 abazi. However, the inscriptions on the coins give the denominations as 5 (ე) puli (ფული), 10 (ი) puli, 20 (კ) puli, 100 (რ) tetri (თეთრი), 200 (ს) tetri and 400 (უ) tetri. Does anyone know what was going on? The word ქართული (kartuli?) appears between the numeral and the denomination. Dove195023:02, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The National Bank of Georgia's website [1] seems to answer most of my question, namely that "kartuli puli" and "kartuli tetri" mean "Georgian copper" and "Georgian silver". It does not, however, state what the base unit for these coins was. From Krause & Mishler, one would conclude that it was the dinar but this denomination is not mentioned on the Bank's site, whilst dirham is. Can anyone illuminate further?
