The history of the currency of Fiji
The Fiji dollar has been the currency of Fiji since
1969 when it replaced the Fiji pound. The Fiji dollar like other dollar
currencies is divided into 100 cents. It is normally abbreviated with the
dollar sign $, or alternatively FJ$ to distinguish it from other
dollar-denominated currencies.
Current coins are issued in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 cents and 1
dollar. The two cent coin will soon be retired from circulation. Banknotes come
in denominations of $2, $5, $10, $20 and $50. Older Fijian banknotes remain
valid.
There is a plan to introduce a new $100
banknote which was expected to be unveiled in December 2006. Although the
Reserve Bank of Fiji has since announced the plans to issue the new high
denomination banknote have been canceled. It remains unclear if any new banknote
issues are to be expected in light of the current political situation in Fiji.
The currency's ISO 4217 code is FJD. Prices are normally written using the
dollar sign "$", sometimes it is also abbreviated as FJ$. to distinguish it from
other dollar denominated currencies
Fiji scraps anticipated release of
new $100 banknote.
