The dollar (currency code BMD), has been the currency of Bermuda since 1970. It is normally abbreviated with the dollar sign $, or alternatively BD$ to distinguish it from other dollar-denominated currencies. It is divided into 100 cents.
The Bermuda dollar is pegged to the U.S. dollar at a 1:1 rate, but is not traded outside of Bermuda. Bermuda has issued its own currency since the seventeenth century. The Bermuda pound, which was replaced by the Bermuda dollar in 1970 at the rate of 1 dollar = 8 shillings 4 pence (that is, 100 pence), was of equivalent value to the British pound. British coinage was used, but Bermuda printed its own banknotes.
