Somaliland Coin List
Somaliland' s monetary history is relatively short but fascinating. Since its declaration of independence from Somalia in 1991, Somaliland has sought to establish its own monetary identity, albeit without official international recognition.
Currency used
Initially, Somaliland continued to use the Somali shilling inherited from Somalia. However, in 1994, the Somaliland government introduced its own currency: the Somaliland shilling. This currency has remained in circulation ever since, although it coexists with other currencies such as the U.S. dollar and the euro in some commercial transactions.
Numismatic milestones
A significant milestone in Somaliland numismatics was the issuance of commemorative coins in 2019, celebrating local wildlife with designs depicting animals such as elephant and leopard. In addition, in 2021, Somaliland took a groundbreaking step by announcing plans to issue its own cryptocurrency, seeking to modernize its financial system and attract foreign investment, despite its unrecognized international status.
