Sudanese dinar: Difference between revisions

The dinar replaced the first Sudanese pound (SDP) on June 8, 1992, at a rate of SD&nbsp;1 = £S.10. On January 10, 2007, a second Sudanese pound (SDG) was introduced at a rate of 1 pound = 100 dinars. According to the [[Central Bank of Sudan|Bank of Sudan]], the dinar was to have stopped circulating after a six-month transitional period. The pound and the dinar were to be accepted as legal currency side by side during the six-month period but cheques would be cashed in pounds from the [[commercial bank]]s. The Bank of Sudan began distributing the new currency to commercial banks and sent consignments of banknotes to the south in 2007.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.smc.sd/en/artopic.asp?artID=23360&aCK=EA |title=Archived:: copySudanese Media Center :: |access-date=2007-01-10 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927033046/http://www.smc.sd/en/artopic.asp?artID=23360&aCK=EA |archive-date=2007-09-27 }}</ref> This second [[Sudanese pound]] became the only legal tender as of July 1, 2007.
