Information About

Tibetan Srang




The srang first appeared as a Silver Coin in 1909 when Tibet began issuing a variety of denominations rather than only issuing the tangka. However, it was not until 1941 that Banknotes appeared denominated in srang.

The last Tibetan coins (5 sho) were issued in 1953, with 100 srang notes issued until 1959.
