It is subdivided into 100 diram ({{lang-tg|дирам}}). The currency is named after the father of the Tajik nation, Ismail Samani (also spelled Ismoil Somoni). HistoryThe somoni was introduced on 30 October 2000;[1] it replaced the Tajikistani ruble, at the rate of 1 somoni = 1000 rubles.[2] The currency is divided into 100 diram for one somoni. Diram banknotes were first introduced on 30 October 2000 to start the currency off and coins were introduced later in 2001 with the intention of creating a more efficient monetary system and gradually replacing the diram notes. This was also the first time circulating coins were introduced in Tajikistan. CoinsCirculation coins, first issued in 2001 were struck in denominations of 5, 10, 20, 25, 50 diram composed of brass-clad steel and 1, 3, and 5 somoni in nickel-clad steel. Bimetallic 3 and 5 somoni coins were first released in 2003. The reverse of all somoni coins are changed annually and commemorate various events. A second issue dated 2011 was issued in June 2012, and included 5, 10, 20, 50 dirams and 1 somoni.[3] A third series of somoni coins was issued in 2018 in denominations of 1, 3 and 5 somoni. Tajikistan coins are struck by Goznak at the Saint Petersburg Mint in Russia. The First Series | Image | Value | Technical parameters | Description | Date of minting |

BanknotesBanknotes of 1, 5, 20, 50 dirams, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 somoni were printed in 1999 and issued in 2000. Along with a 3 somoni note in 2010, inflationary pressure since the introduction of the somoni has resulted in the printing of 200 and 500 somoni notes that year. The 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 somoni notes were reissued in 2013, bearing the year 1999. The Current Series | Image | Value | Dimensions | Main Colour | Description | Date of |
