Converting from Sierra Leonean Leone (SLL) to Swaziland Lilageni (SZL)

What is Sierra Leonean Leone (SLL)

The Sierra Leonean Leone (SLL) is the official currency of Sierra Leone, a country located on the West Coast of Africa. The Leone was first introduced in 1964, replacing the previous currency, the Sierra Leonean pound. The currency code for the Leone is SLL, and it is further subdivided into 100 cents.

The Sierra Leonean economy relies heavily on agriculture, mining, and services. The central bank of Sierra Leone, known as the Bank of Sierra Leone, is responsible for issuing and managing the Leone. Inflation and fluctuations in the economy can affect the exchange rate of the Leone against other currencies, such as the Swaziland Lilageni.

In daily use, the Leone is represented by both coins and paper notes. Coins typically come in denominations of 1, 5, 10, and 50 cents, while paper notes are available in larger amounts, ranging from 1,000 to 100,000 Leones. The value of the Leone can vary widely, especially in times of economic instability, which impacts its purchasing power both domestically and internationally.

What is Swaziland Lilageni (SZL)

The Swaziland Lilageni (SZL) is the official currency of Eswatini (formerly known as Swaziland), located in Southern Africa. The Lilageni was introduced in 1974, replacing the South African Rand at par, and it remains a legal tender in the country. The currency code for the Lilageni is SZL, and it is divided into 100 cents.

Eswatini’s economy is primarily driven by agriculture, mining, and manufacturing. The central bank of Eswatini, called the Central Bank of Eswatini, oversees the issuance and management of the Lilageni. Like the Leone, the Lilageni's value can be influenced by economic factors, including inflation, trade relations, and foreign exchange reserves.

The Lilageni is also available in both coins and paper notes. The coins include denominations of 1, 2, 5, and 10 cents, while the notes are issued in various amounts ranging from 20 to 200 Lilageni. The stability of the Lilageni is generally better compared to the Leone due to Eswatini's stronger economic performance.
