Until 1958, Nigeria used the British West African pound, after which it issued its own currency. The pound was subdivided into 20 shillings, each of 12 pence. The Nigerian pound (which was at parity with the British pound with easy convertibility[1]) was replaced with the introduction in 1973 of the decimal naira at a rate of 1 pound = 2 naira.[2] This made Nigeria the last country to abandon the £sd currency system. CoinsCoins were issued in 1959 in denominations of ½, 1, 3 and 6 pence, 1 and 2 shillings. The ½ and 1 penny coins were bronze and holed. The 3 pence coin, minted in nickel-brass, was a smaller version of the distinctive twelve sided threepenny bits that were used in the UK, Fiji, and Jersey. The higher denominations were struck in cupro-nickel. BanknotesIn 1918, emergency issues were made by the government in denominations of 1, 10 and 20 shillings. In 1959,[3] the Central Bank of Nigeria introduced notes in denominations of 5 and 10 shillings, 1 and 5 pounds. Three series of notes were issued, in 1958, 1967 and 1968. See also{{Portal|Money}}
