The Namibian dollar (sign N$, code NAD) is the national currency of Namibia, a South African republic. The currency is not accepted in other countries. Cents are small coins used as change for the Namibian dollar.

Every NAD has 100 cents. The currency has been issued since 1993. Its predecessor was the South African rand. A premise of creating its own currency was the fact that Namibia gained independence and organized its own national bank. These events date back to 1990.
