On January 19, ...1980, the first national currency was introduced - the loti, divided into 100 licentes and equal to the South African rand. This change was intended to ensure the economic and political independence of Lesotho from the Republic of South Africa, which in reality did not happen.

On the front side of the 1 loti coin there is a portrait of the king of Lesotho, Moshen I, who in the first half of the 19th century. did everything to unite all the tribes that then lived on the territory of modern Lesotho, thereby ending internecine wars. Coins are mostly made of steel.
