Widely used in everyday transactions, salaries, local trade, and services, the ERN is essential for the functioning of the domestic economy.

SLL [Sierra Leonean Leone (Old)]

The old Sierra Leonean Leone, abbreviated as SLL, was the currency of Sierra Leone before the 2022 redenomination. Introduced in 1964 to replace the British West African pound, it was issued and regulated by the Bank of Sierra Leone, which managed monetary policy and maintained economic stability. The old leone was subdivided into 100 cents, though smaller denominations became rarely used due to inflation. Coins and banknotes circulated widely, with coins ranging from 1 to 50 leones and banknotes from 1,000 to 100,000 leones. The SLL played a vital role in daily transactions, trade, salaries, and services until it was replaced by the new leone (SLE) to simplify the currency system and restore financial confidence.
