Suriname dollar
The Suriname dollar was introduced on January 1, 2004, with one dollar valued at 1000 Suriname guilders. Initially only coins were available, with banknotes delayed until mid-February, reportedly due to a problem at the printer, the Bank of Canada.
The old coins denominated in cents (i.e., 1/100 guilder) were declared to be worth their face value in the new cents, negating the necessity of producing new coins. Thus, for example, an old 50 cent coin, nominally worth half a guilder was now worth half a dollar.
Amendment 121 of ISO 4217 gave the currency the code SRD replacing the Suirname guilder (SRG)
