See <a href="/wiki/British_West_Indies_dollar" title="British West Indies dollar">British West Indies dollar</a>. The peculiar feature about Jamaica was the fact that it was the only British West Indies territory to use special issues of the <a href="/wiki/Pound_sterling" title="Pound sterling">sterling</a> coinage, apart from the four-pence <a href="/wiki/Groat_(coin)" class="mw-redirect" title="Groat (coin)">groat</a> coin which was specially issued for all the British West Indies, and later only for <a href="/wiki/British_Guiana" title="British Guiana">British Guiana</a>. </p><p>The earliest money in Jamaica was <a href="/wiki/Spain" title="Spain">Spanish</a> <a href="/wiki/Copper" title="Copper">copper</a> coins called <i><a href="/wiki/Maraved%C3%AD" title="Maravedí">maravedíes</a></i>. This relates to the fact that for nearly four hundred years <a href="/wiki/Spanish_dollar" title="Spanish dollar">Spanish dollars</a>, known as <a href="/wiki/Pieces_of_eight" class="mw-redirect" title="Pieces of eight">pieces of eight</a> were in widespread use on the world's trading routes, including the Caribbean Sea region. However, following the revolutionary wars in Latin America, the source of these silver trade coins dried up. The last Spanish dollar was minted at the <a href="/wiki/Potos%C3%AD" title="Potosí">Potosí</a> mint in 1825. The <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">United Kingdom</a> had adopted a very successful <a href="/wiki/Gold_standard" title="Gold standard">gold standard</a> in 1821, so 1825 was an opportune time to introduce the British sterling coinage into all the British colonies. </p><p>An imperial order-in-council was passed in that year for the purposes of facilitating this aim by making sterling coinage legal tender in the colonies at the specified rating of <span class="nowrap"><span data-sort-value="7000100000000000000♠"></span>$1</span> = 4s 4d (one Spanish dollar to four <a href="/wiki/Shilling" title="Shilling">shillings</a> and four <a href="/wiki/Pence" class="mw-redirect" title="Pence">pence</a> sterling). As the sterling silver coins were attached to a gold standard, this exchange rate did not realistically represent the value of the <a href="/wiki/Silver" title="Silver">silver</a> in the Spanish dollars as compared to the value of the <a href="/wiki/Gold" title="Gold">gold</a> in the British gold sovereign, and as such, the order-in-council had the reverse effect in many colonies. It had the effect of actually driving sterling coinage out, rather than encouraging its circulation. </p><p>Remedial legislation had to be introduced in 1838 so as to change over to the more realistic rating of <span class="nowrap"><span data-sort-value="7000100000000000000♠"></span>$1</span> = 4s 2d. However, in Jamaica, <a href="/wiki/British_Honduras" title="British Honduras">British Honduras</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bermuda" title="Bermuda">Bermuda</a>, and later in the <a href="/wiki/Bahamas" class="mw-redirect" title="Bahamas">Bahamas</a> also, the official rating was set aside in favour of what was known as the 'Maccaroni' tradition in which a British shilling, referred to as a 'Maccaroni', was treated as one quarter of a dollar. The common link between these four territories was the <a href="/wiki/Bank_of_Nova_Scotia" class="mw-redirect" title="Bank of Nova Scotia">Bank of Nova Scotia</a> which brought in the 'Maccaroni' tradition, resulting in the successful introduction of both sterling coinage and sterling accounts. </p><p>In 1834, silver coins of <a href="/wiki/Threepence_(British_coin)" title="Threepence (British coin)">threepence</a> and <a href="/wiki/Three_halfpence_(British_coin)" title="Three halfpence (British coin)">three halfpence</a> (<link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1154941027"><span class="frac">1<span class="sr-only">+</span><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">2</span></span> pence) were introduced, valued at <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1154941027"><span class="frac"><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">2</span></span> <a href="/wiki/Spanish_real" title="Spanish real">real</a> and <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1154941027"><span class="frac"><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">4</span></span> real. The three-halfpence coins came to be called "quartiles" or "quatties". These in particular were used in church collections due to a feeling by the black population that copper coins were inappropriate for that purpose. Hence, they came to be called "Christian quatties". </p><p>In 1839, an act was passed by <a href="/wiki/Parliament_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Parliament of the United Kingdom">Parliament</a> declaring that as of 31 December 1840, only British coinage would be <a href="/wiki/Legal_tender" title="Legal tender">legal tender</a> in Jamaica, demonetizing all of the Spanish coins, with the exception of the gold <a href="/wiki/Doubloon" title="Doubloon">doubloon</a> which was valued at £3 4s.

The solution was to use <a href="/wiki/Cupronickel" title="Cupronickel">cupronickel</a>, adopted in 1869. Pennies and halfpennies were minted for use in Jamaica, becoming the first truly Jamaican coins. Beginning in 1880, the farthing was also minted in cupronickel. </p><p>In 1904, the first government-authorized <a href="/wiki/Banknote" title="Banknote">banknotes</a> were produced in the denomination of 10s. Banknotes of £1 and £5 were also being circulated by chartered banks. In 1918, denominations of 2s 6d and 5s were authorized. The 2s 6d note proved to have a short life, being withdrawn in 1922. In 1940, the government bank began producing £1 and £5 notes. </p><p>In October 1960, the Bank of Jamaica was given the sole right to mint coins and produce banknotes in Jamaica. Their notes were released on 1 May 1961, in the denominations of 5s, 10s, £1, and £5. </p><p>On 30 January 1968, the <a href="/wiki/Jamaican_House_of_Representatives" class="mw-redirect" title="Jamaican House of Representatives">Jamaican House of Representatives</a> voted to decimalize the currency by introducing the dollar, worth 10 shillings, to replace the <a href="/wiki/Jamaican_pound" title="Jamaican pound">Jamaican pound</a>. Coins and banknotes went into circulation on 8 September 1969. The introduction of a decimal currency provided the opportunity for the introduction of a complete Jamaican coinage as formerly, the coins (with the exception of the penny and halfpenny), were the same as those used in the United Kingdom. The reverse of the decimal coinage was designed by <a href="/wiki/Christopher_Ironside" title="Christopher Ironside">Christopher Ironside</a>. These coins were in circulation from 1969 to about 1990. </p><p>From its introduction, as a result of elevated levels of inflation during the 1980s and especially the early 1990s, the Jamaican dollar has fallen from a peak of J$0.77 to <span style="white-space: nowrap">US$1</span> in its first few years of circulation to around J$131 to <span style="white-space: nowrap">US$1</span> as of July 2018.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The new Jamaican dollar (and the <a href="/wiki/Cayman_Islands_dollar" title="Cayman Islands dollar">Cayman Islands dollar</a>), differed from all the other dollars in the British West Indies in that it was essentially a half-pound sterling. All the other dollars in the vicinity either began on the US dollar unit, in the case of Belize, Bermuda, and the Bahamas, or the Spanish dollar unit in the case of the Eastern Caribbean territories, Barbados and Guyana.

The unique image, which is normally on the reverse side of each note, has been replaced by a photograph of a group of children from Central Branch Primary School, from 1962.
