[edit] Request for information

Two things:
Could somene in the know add the Sinhalese name for this currency?
Does anynoe know if pound-denominated banknotes were produced in Ceylon? Pick lists some government notes but says they weren't issued. Were there any local issues?
Thanks Dove1950 19:47, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Yes, the British first issued rixdollar notes, then pound notes (as I have added to the entry). And, yes, private banknotes were issued between 1844 and 1885. The first private banks to issue notes were the Bank of Ceylon (1844) at Colombo and Oriental Bank (1845) at Colombo and Kandy. Oriental absorbed Bank of Ceylon in 1847, and the combined institution continued issuing as Oriental Bank Corporation. Mercantile Bank of India, London & China began issuing in 1854; it was renamed Chartered Mercantile Bank of India in 1859. Asiatic Banking Corporation began issuing in 1864 (and failed in 1866).

There is no entry for "currency of Sri Lanka" that would give an outline of the currency history of the island. Too bad - that makes it difficult to add information coherently.Sivasova (talk) 23:08, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for yet more info. I think that we should probably start a new article, Ceylonese pound, to encompass the issues of the Treasury and the private banks. I now have a catalogue that lists the private issues but I don't know what was issued by the Treasury.
Dove1950 (talk) 16:09, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure about the logic behind an article entitled "Ceylonese pound". I have just recently become involved with Wikipedia, after discovering some useful information in the excellent entries on Hungarian currency (banknotes). I am very confused about the principles being used for currency articles, and I cannot find any place where they are set out in detail for newcommers. To avoid confusion about what actual currency is being discussed, there really should really be an entry (article) "Currency of Sri Lanka" to provide an outline of, and links to, the currencies used on the island from their first appearence down to the present. Names and currencies change, but there is continuity.

The Public Treasury issued pound-denominated notes that circulated between 1827 and 1856. It seems that the initial emission (1827) was in denominations of 1, 2, and 5 pounds, and notes for 10, 20, and 25 appeared later. The text on the £2 note read: "CEYLON | The Bearer hereof is entitled to receive on demand TWO POUNDS at the General Treasury, in the Currency of this Island, at Colombo.” There were £87,400 in treasury notes outstanding on 1836-12-31, as follows: £1, 40 715 pieces; £2, 18 375 pieces; £5, 1274 pieces; £10, 213 pieces; £20, 38 pieces; and £25, 27 pieces.

I'm not sure what "Ceylonese pound" would, could, or should mean; no pounds, shillings, or pence were ever minted on or for Ceylon . The treasury notes were for "pounds" - pounds as money of account, to be paid in local currency at Colombo. In practice, this meant rupees and annas. The legal tender was British silver. But local payments could be made in any coin or paper authorized to be current (i.e., authorized for circulation). In Ceylon after 1827, this meant the following coins (and their multiples and dividers): the British shilling, the local silver and paper rixdollars, the Spanish dollar, and the sicca, Bombay, and Madras rupees. The Company's rupee (Government rupee after 1862) became current in 1836 and quickly became the dominant coin on the island. Consequently, while accounts were kept in pounds-shillings-pence, trade was carried on in rupees.

Some outline, with Wikilinks, should be given somewhere even if only simplified and very general, for example:

 Currency of Sri Lanka
 1785-1796 Ryksdaalder
 1796-1827 Rix Dollar
 1827-1836 Pound of 20 Shillings
 1836-1872 Pound of 10 Rupees or 20 Shillings
 1872-     Rupee of 100 Cents

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
