GNF

Guinean Franc

GNF is the official currency of Guinea. It is issued by the Central Bank of the Republic of Guinea and has no practical subdivisions.

The franc was introduced in 1959 when Guinea opted out of the CFA franc zone to maintain monetary independence after gaining independence from France. The currency has experienced significant volatility due to political instability, despite the country's rich mineral resources including bauxite.
