Ghanaian Cedi to Romanian Leu

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 Romanian leu (symbol: L, code: RON, number 946). One leu is subdivided into 100 bani. The banknotes bear the images of historical figures, writers, artists, buildings and tourist places.

The contemporary samples were introduced into circulation in 2005, following the revaluation at the exchange rate of 10 000 “old” lei for 1 “new” leu.
