The West African Currency Board series of British West Africa in the World Currency contains 1 distinct entries.

British West Africa consisted of The Gambia, the Gold Coast (renamed Ghana), Nigeria, and Sierra Leone. The British government established the West African Currency Board (WACB) in London based upon the recommendations in a report dated 5 June 1912 of the committee chaired by Lord Emmott, then under-secretary of state for the colonies. The board’s constitution was set on record 6 December 1912, and revised and enlarged by Prime Minister Bonar Law in November 1915 to permit issuance of notes.
