The Liberian dollar is the nation’s official currency. So, why do so many Liberians use US dollars for everyday transactions?
A dual currency system has existed in Liberia since the late 1800s. Professor Leigh Gardner from the Department of Economic History at LSE has examined the government’s struggle to re-assert the Liberian dollar over time. Her research was the subject of a physical display in the Value of Money exhibition at the National Museum of American History.
