    In which present country is the shilling the national currency?

    		The Somaliland shilling is the official currency of Somaliland, a de facto independent republic which is claimed in whole by Somalia. The Somaliland shilling, while stable, is not an internationally recognized currency and currently has no official exchange rate. It is regulated by the Bank of Somaliland, the central bank, which was established constitutionally in 1994. It was introduced on October 18, 1994 at one new Somaliland shilling to 100 Somali shillings. The Somali shilling ceased to be accepted as legal tender in Somaliland on January 31, 1995. It is an active and current currency.
