The rupee was the currency of Britain's East African colonies and protectorates between 1906 and 1920. It was divided into 100 cents. The rupee replaced the Indian rupee, which had previously circulated. In 1920, the rupee was revalued against sterling to a peg of 1 rupee = 2 shillings (1 florin). In East Africa, this was followed in the same year by the replacement of the rupee with the East African florin at par and then in 1921 by the East African shilling at 2 shillings per florin or rupee. The currency is noteworthy for including the world's first aluminium coin, the 1907 1 cent coin.

  • La roupie est-africaine (East African rupee) est l'ancienne devise utilisée dans les colonies et protectorats est-africains britanniques entre 1906 et 1920. Elle était subdivisée en 100 cents. Lancée en 1906, elle remplaçait la roupie indienne. Cette dernière comprenait des monnaies émises pour le Raj britannique mais également des émissions propres à ce territoire, placé sous le contrôle de la Compagnie britannique impériale d'Afrique de l'Est (Imperial British East Africa Co., IBEAC) à compter de 1895. Une seule pièce fut émise, la 1 pice en bronze (1897-1899). (fr)
