In the 19...th century, the Indian rupee and the Maria Theresa thaler were used in monetary circulation. Since 1940, minting of coins in baizes has begun, and since 1948 - in rials. Rials and coins were minted in two types - Saidi rial and Dofari rial. On May 11, 1959, the Reserve Bank and the Government of India began issuing special banknotes - Persian Gulf rupees, which were not legal tender in India, while the rial and thaler continued to be used in circulation. Since June 1966, as a result of the devaluation of the rupee of the Persian Gulf, the Maria Theresa thaler remained in circulation. On May 7, 1970, the said rial, equivalent to the pound sterling, was declared the only legal currency in Oman.

History reference:
The Rwandan franc or Rwandan franc is the national currency of Rwanda. In 1916, after the transfer of Rwanda from Germany to Belgium, instead of the rupee of German East Africa, the Belgian Congo fra...nc was introduced, in 1960 it was replaced by the franc of Rwanda and Burundi. In 1964, the latter, which was the common currency for Rwanda and Burundi, was replaced by the Rwandan franc. There is a proposal for a single currency, the new East African shilling, for the five member states of the East African Community. While this was originally planned to happen by the end of 2012, as of December 2020, the single currency has yet to be introduced.
