From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The lira was the currency of Italian Somaliland between 1925 and ca. 1938. It replaced the Italian Somaliland rupia. Only coins were issued, in denominations of 5 and 10 lire. These circulated alongside Italian coins and banknotes. From 1938, banknotes of the Italian East African lira also circulated.
