The Cypriot Pound (CYP) served as the official currency of Cyprus from 1879 until its replacement by the euro in 2008.
Over its long history, the Pound evolved through multiple political eras, from British colonial administration to the independent Republic of Cyprus.
The final modern series, issued by the Central Bank of Cyprus, featured prominent national figures, archaeological heritage, and traditional Cypriot motifs.
When Cyprus joined the eurozone on 1 January 2008, all Cypriot Pound banknotes and coins were officially withdrawn from circulation.
Although no longer accepted for everyday transactions, many CYP notes still retain redeemable value and remain of interest to collectors due to their historical significance and distinctive designs.
At Thecurrencycounter.co.uk, we accept a wide range of outdated Cypriot Pound notes, including early post‑independence issues, redesigned series, and denominations no longer seen in circulation.
