What is El Salvador Colon (SVC)

The El Salvador Colon (SVC) was the official currency of El Salvador until it was replaced by the US dollar in 2001.

The currency featured various symbols and historical figures, making it a part of Salvadoran heritage.

In recent years, the Gourde has faced challenges due to inflation and economic instability, often influenced by factors like political uncertainty and natural disasters. Despite these hurdles, the Gourde still serves as the primary medium of exchange in Haiti, playing a significant role in everyday commerce, including local markets and trade.
