Zimbabwe Coin List
Zimbabwe' s numismatics reflect a tumultuous monetary history marked by hyperinflation and drastic changes in the monetary system. Since its independence in 1980, the country has undergone several transformations in its currency, passing through periods of economic crisis that have left an indelible mark on its financial history.
Current currency in circulation
Zimbabwe currently uses a multiple currency system, officially adopted in 2009. The main currencies in circulation include the U.S. dollar, the South African rand, and the Botswana pula. In 2019, the RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement) dollar was introduced as the local currency, although its use is limited and coexists with foreign currencies. This situation reflects the country's continued efforts to stabilize its economy and monetary system.
Monetary history and relevant facts
Prior to the crisis, Zimbabwe used the Zimbabwean dollar, introduced in 1980 to replace the Rhodesian dollar. However, record hyperinflation in the late 2000s led to the issuance of bills with astronomical denominations, including the famous Z$100 billion bill in 2009. This period is considered one of the most extreme cases of hyperinflation in modern history, making it a significant milestone in world numismatics and a testament to the economic challenges faced by the country.
