Positioned in the eastern Mediterranean Sea south of Anatolia and governed from its ancient walled capital of Nicosia, the island of Cyprus gave its very name to copper (aes cyprium) and struck classical silver staters as early as the 6th century BC. After transitioning from British pre-decimal piastres to the decimal Cypriot pound (CYP) and mils in 1955 and cents in 1983, Cyprus adopted the Euro (EUR) in 2008 featuring the Idol of Pomos, the Kyrenia ship, and the mouflon.
