斯里兰卡卢比

斯里兰卡卢比简介

斯里兰卡卢比为斯里兰卡民主社会主义共和国（The Democratic Socialist Republic of Sir Lanka）流通货币，中央银行名称为：斯里兰卡中央银行（CentraL Bank of Sir Lanka），它负责斯里兰卡的货币发行。

斯里兰卡当下市面流通的钞票有8种面额，分别为2、5、10、20、50、100、500、1000卢比。但2、5卢比面额的小额纸币现已渐渐不用。另外，尚有1、2、5、10、25、50分和1卢比的铸币同期流通。近期，又新添加了2、5、10卢比的铸币。斯里兰卡的辅币进位是1卢比等于100分（Cents）。

斯里兰卡的纸币首次发行是1952年1月4号，第二次发行即当下市面流通的是1991年新设计的钞票，所有面额的新钞票上面都印有01、01、1991字样。

斯里兰卡货币原名锡兰卢比，1973年6月1号更名叫斯里兰卡卢比。1967年11月22号锡兰卢比对美元贬值20％，含金量为0.14929，官方汇率降到1美元等于5.95237锡兰卢比。1971年11月8号锡兰卢比切断同英镑的联系，官方汇率价格同美元比价为1美元等于5.95锡兰卢比。同年末美元大幅下浮后，锡兰卢比对其它货币一律实施浮动。1972年6月23号英镑开始浮动，锡兰卢比正式同美元挂钩。1973年2月美元贬值时，锡兰卢比事实汇率无改变。1976年5月24号斯里兰卡卢比改同一揽子货币挂钩，同年11月16号双重汇率制解体，事实浮动汇率正式用于结算，1美元等于16斯里兰卡卢比。1983年8月初，斯里兰卡卢比汇率价格参照六大贸易伙伴国的商品价格计算浮动。

斯里兰卡卢比与人民币不能直接兑换。

The Sri Lankan Rupee.

The rupee is the official currency of Sri Lanka, pided into 100 cents. The currency's ISO 4217 code is LKR. It is issued by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka and is generally written ? (though SL? may occasionally be used for disambiguation).

Until 1870, the British pound was Ceylon's official currency, having replaced the rixdollar in 1828. Quarter farthings (one sixteenth of a penny), half farthings (one eighth of a penny) and three halfpennies (1 1?2 pence) were issued in addition to those coins used in Britain.

The rupee was introduced in 1870. It was equal to the Indian rupee and replaced the British currency at a rate of 1 rupee = 2 shillings 3 pence. Unlike the Indian rupee, the Sri Lankan rupee was a decimal currency from the very beginning.

In December 2005, a new set of coins with denominations 5 rupee, 2 rupee, 1 rupee, 50 cents and 25 cents have been released. These new coins circulate alongside the older coins. Coins of smaller denomination although legal tender are almost never seen in circulation.

Sri Lankan banknotes are unusual in that they are printed vertically on the reverse. Banknotes are currently printed by "De la Rue Lanka Currency and Securities Print (Pvt) Ltd", a joint venture between the Government of Sri Lanka and Thomas De la Rue, a British banknote and securities printer.

Current banknotes are issued in denominations of 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000 and 2000 Rupees. The note of 200 rupees was issued in 1998 to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of Independence for Sri Lanka. The 200 Rupee note was only intended to be in circulation for a short time, but due to its popularity it remains in circulation to today. On 17 October 2006 a new note of 2000 Rupees was issued. Older Sri Lankan and Ceylon banknotes remain legal tender.
