Specimen of the new Sudanese one Pound note The Central Bank of Sudan has started circulation of the new Sudanese pound that is to replace the current Sudanese dinar . This measure is part of the peace agreement signed between the Government of Sudan and the SPLA , that ended a 20-year old civil war. The dinar was viewed in the south as part of an attempted "Arabisation" of Sudan by the previous government and was not in circulation in areas controlled by the southern rebel movement. Several alternative currencies, including old Sudanese pounds were used instead. According to Sabir Mohamed Al Hassan , the governor of the Central Bank of Sudan, the dinar will remain in circulation, along with the pound, for an interim period of six months before it is discontinued on July 1, 2007.
