The dollar (currency code TTD) is the currency of Trinidad and Tobago. It is normally abbreviated with the dollar sign $, or alternatively TT$ to distinguish it from other dollar-denominated currencies. It is divided into 100 cents. On coins, one side features Trinidad and Tobago's coat of arms, while the other displays either a national bird or flower.
Until 1964, Trinidad and Tobago used the British West Indies dollar. This was replaced by the Trinidad and Tobago dollar at par.
