1 Tolar (1994)


The tolar has been the currency of Slovenia since October 1991. It is divided into 100 stotins.

The ISO 4217 currency code for the Slovene tolar is SIT.

The name tolar comes from the Thaler, a silver coin first minted in 1518 in Joachimsthal, Bohemia, from which the English word dollar is derived.

On 28 June 2004 the tolar was pegged against the euro in the ERM II [1] (http://www.ecb.int/press/pr/date/2004/html/pr040627.en.html), the EU's exchange rate mechanism.
