Additional information

Sudan's 2006 coinage reform followed years of monetary instability tied to civil war, international sanctions, and the economic fracture that would eventually produce two separate nations by 2011. These brass pieces entered circulation during a period when the Central Bank was rebuilding credibility after the country's earlier hyperinflationary episodes of the 1990s.
