The rupee replaced the Indian Rupee , which had previously circulated, with the value of the East African currency equal to that of India. In 1920 , the rupee was revalued against Sterling to a peg of 1 rupee = 2 shillings (1 Florin ). In East Africa, this was followed in the same year by the replacement of the rupee with the East African Florin at par. The currency is noteworthy for including the world's first Aluminium coin, the 1906 1 cent. EXTERNAL LINKS |
