Mozambique's 2006 low-denomination coinage was issued following a redenomination that replaced the old metical at a rate of 1000:1 — one of the more dramatic currency resets in recent African monetary history, driven by decades of accumulated inflation stemming from the civil war that ended only in 1992.
