The peso was the currency of Nicaragua between 1878 and 1912. It was Nicaragua's first national currency, replacing the Central American Republic real and that of neighbouring states. It was subdivided into 100 centavos and was worth 8 reales. After suffering high inflation, the peso was replaced by the córdoba at a rate of 12½ pesos = 1 córdoba.
