Ghanaian Cedi to Australian Dollar

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.

The Australian dollar (symbol: $ ,code: AUD, number 036) is used in Australia, as well as on the Islands of Norfolk, Christmas Island, the Cocos Islands, in Nauru, Tuvalu and Kiribati. It is subdivided into 100 cents. $/A$/AU$ and other abbreviations are used.

The currency was introduced in 1966 to replace the Australian pound. Traditionally, coins and some banknotes depict portraits of the queen Elizabeth II as well as representatives of the fauna of the continent and famous people.
