5 Lari – Georgia

Fragment of the "Gelati Four Gospels" (12th c.) depicting Luke seated with a book. Adjacent is a fragment from the "Mokvi Four Gospels" (1300 AD) showing Matthew 24:3-8 in Georgian Nuskhuri script with a decorative capital "D". Inscriptions note the dates of the first printed Georgian book and the first book printed in Georgia.

The central design combines the Lari symbol and Georgia’s 2018 Frankfurt Book Fair logo (a stylized “ა”), encircled by text in German and English.
