Bahamian Dollar to Ghanaian Cedi

The Bahamian dollar (sign B$, code BSD) is used for payment in the Bahamas. Cent is used as change for the Bahamian dollar. Every BSD has 100 cents.

The currency has been introduced into circulation in 1966. Before that, pound sterling was used as the currency. There is an agreement signed between the Bahamas and the USA that allows to use both currencies on the territory of the island. Thus, tourists, who come on vacation, can use the American dollar to pay for services and purchases.

The Ghanaian cedi (sign GH₵, code GHS) is the currency used in circulation in Ghana. The currency is not used outside the country. The Ghanaian cedi uses pesewa as change.

One cedi equals 100 pesewas. In 1965, the cedi became the sole currency in the country. Before that, Ghana had changed its currency several times. Since the country was a British colony, its territory allowed pounds sterling and later on, it was replaced with the West African pound. Afterwards, the Ghanaian pound took its place. All notes, except 50 cedi, depict portraits of the state’s politicians. The 50-cedi banknote portrays the cocoa fruit.
