The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Bank of Sierra Leone series of Sierra Leone in the World Currency contains 166 distinct entries with CPG® values between $0.75 and $450.00.

Prior to the establishment of the Bank of Sierra Leone (BSL), the West Africa Currency Board was responsible for the issue of currency in Sierra Leone. Following the attainment of independence on 27 April 1961, however, the need was felt for a separate monetary institution controlled by Sierra Leone. Preliminary arrangements for the establishment of a central bank including the drafting of the legislation then commenced. On 27 March 1963, the Bank of Sierra Leone Act became law and the bank began operation on 4 August 1964, the day Sierra Leone changed to the decimal system of currency.
