BAANKA SOMALILAND

This is a 1000 shilling note from Somaliland and it was issued in 2006. Somaliland is an unrecognised state which internationally is considered to be part of Somalia. The front has a lion and an African woman, whereas the reverse has a standing lion and a camel to the right.

SOMALILAND

Somaliland is a de facto state that is not recognised by the UN but is recognised as an autonomous region of Somalia. The capital city is Hargeisa. Somaliland declared independence from Somalia at a conference in Burao , under the leadership of  Abdirahman Ahmed Ali Tuur , in 1991. The war in Somalia has, for the most part not affected Somaliland.

monetary unit : 1 Somaliland shilling = 1 Shilin (somalia)

 The note above is the 5 Shilling note from 1994 with Greater Kudu and what I think may be the high court building in hargeisa on the front and camels on the reverse.
