About Honduran Lempira (L)
The Honduran Lempira (HNL, ISO 4217 code 340, symbol L) is the official currency of the Republic of Honduras — named after the indigenous Lenca chief Lempira who led resistance against Spanish conquistadors in 1537. Issued by the Banco Central de Honduras (BCH, est. 1950). Subdivided into 100 centavos. Banknotes: L1, L2, L5, L10, L20, L50, L100, L200, L500 (the highest denomination, introduced 2010; current series features Honduran historical figures — Lempira on the L1, Francisco Morazán (the first president of the Federal Republic of Central America), José Cecilio del Valle, José Trinidad Cabañas, Dionisio de Herrera, Marco Aurelio Soto, Juan Manuel Gálvez, Ramón Rosa); coins: 5 centavos, 10 centavos, 20 centavos, 50 centavos.
