The Peruvian Sol is the national currency of the Republic of Peru.

Prior to that, from 1858 to 1863, Republican Peru issued denominations in reals, centavos and escudos. A decimal system was introduced, 1 new sol was equal to 10 old reais. Salt also replaced the Bolivian peso, which was common in the south of Peru, the exchange was made at the rate of 1.25 pesos per 1 new Peruvian salt. Initially, the new currency was pegged to the French franc: 1 sol was equal to 5 francs, about five sols were equal to the British sovereign.
