Ghana's 1967 coinage series was introduced following the coup that ousted Kwame Nkrumah in February 1966. The new National Liberation Council scrapped the preceding cedi-based system tied to Nkrumah's image and introduced a decimalized currency — 100 pesewas to the cedi — as part of a broader effort to de-Nkrumahize public life. The 2½ pesewa denomination is an awkward survivor of that transition, retained because small-value fractional units were still needed for daily market pricing.
The denomination was dropped relatively quickly in subsequent issues, making the 1967 date the primary representative of this value in Ghanaian coinage.
