Sahrawi peseta. The Sahrawi peseta (Arabic: ???????????????? ????????????????, Spanish: Peseta Saharaui) is the currency of the partially recognized Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic. It is divided in 100 c??ntimos, although coins with this denomination have never been minted, nor have banknotes been printed.

Despite this, the Sahrawi peseta was pegged at par to the Spanish peseta and, when the latter was phased out for the euro, the rate became ???1 for 166.386 Pts.

Sahrawi peseta. The Sahrawi peseta (Arabic: ???????????????? ????????????????, Spanish: Peseta saharaui) is the de jure currency of the partially recognized Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic. It is divided in 100 c??ntimos, although coins with this denomination have never been minted, nor have banknotes been printed.

Ethiopian birr. The birr (Amharic: ??????) is the primary unit of currency in Ethiopia. It is subdivided into 100 santims. In 1931, Emperor Haile Selassie formally requested that the international community use the name Ethiopia (as it had already been known internally for at least 1,600 years) instead of the exonym Abyssinia, and the issuing Bank of Abyssinia also became the Bank of Ethiopia. Thus, the pre-1931 currency may be referred to as the Abyssinian birr and the post-1931 currency the Ethiopian birr, although neither the country nor the currency changed beyond the name. 186 billion birr ($14.7 billion or ???9.97 billion) were in circulation in 2008.
