The Liberian Dollar is the official currency of Liberia and is commonly referred to as the LD. However, there are many synonyms used to describe this currency that are unique to Liberia. Some of these include the 'Lib', 'Liberian buck', 'Liberian buckeroo', 'Liberian currency', and 'Liberian greenback'. Additionally, some locals in Liberia refer to the currency as 'Gbakayu', which means 'money' in the Bassa language spoken in Liberia. While the Liberian Dollar may have several synonyms, it remains the legal tender for all payments in Liberia, and its value is determined by market forces.
