The history of Tajikistani Somoni.
Before the current currency, the Tajikistani Ruble was the official banknote of Tajikistan from 1991 until 30 October 2000 when the Tajikistani Somoni (TJS) was issued. The term Taji derived from Ismail Saman, the father of this nation, and Somoni came from Ismoil Somoni, the highest mountain in Tajikistan.
The first denomination of Somoni banknote was introduced in 2000 in 1, 5, 20, 50 dirams, and 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 somoni notes were in circulation. However, due to the high inflation and a weakened economy by a long period of the civil war, the 200 and 500 somoni notes were issued in 2010. These somoni notes were bearing the same concept, a portrait of a famous person in Tajikistan on the front and an image of important buildings in this country as a symbol on the reversed side.
