In 2007, Ghana had a redenomination of its currency the cedi, which has now become known as the "Ghanaian cedi". It was broken down into 1, 5, 10, 20, 50 GHC. At the time, the 1 US$ was equivalent to 0.92 GHC.
Today, 1 US$ is equivalent to 1.45 GHC, so technically speaking the 2GHC will be equivalent to 1.37 US$
I picked the picture from http://news.myjoyonline.com/business/201004/44192.asp. Once I get a copy of my own 2 GHC, I will definitely feature it here.
April sees the 4th celebration of Accra Daily Photo. When the appropriate date comes, I shall be popping the champagne!
Have a great Easter, and keep it safe!
