The Aureuso (symbol: ɑ; code: AUR) is the currency of Anserisa. It is abbreviated with its symbol ɑ or sometimes AUR. It is divided into 100 centem (ç).

Because the currency was formerly named Aurumo in the past, it is sometimes referred to that nickname, but it is somehow rare.

Coins

Coins are produced by the Anserisan Coinage and Printing Administration facility in Geneva on Branta Island. In denominations of 10ç, 25ç, 1ɑ and 2ɑ. The 50ç is produced sometimes as a commemorative coin, even though it as legal tender it is rarely seen circulating but has a high value for collectors. The AMIA used to produce coins in denominations of 1ç and 5ç, production stopped in 2012. They continue to be legal tender, although they are only accepted as payment and not given back as change.

Banknotes

Same as the coins, the banknotes in Anserisa are issued by the Anserisan Coinage and Printing Administration. The first type of banknotes in Anserisa were receipts payable to the bearer of the document rather than the original depositor. The first modern banknotes in Anserisa appear during the Anserisan Empire and the creation by Emperor Hadriano of the Imperial Bank of Anserisa in 1809, the predecessor of the Anserisan Central Bank Administration. The banknotes issued by the Empire were legal tender until the first issue created by the new AMIA in 1821. The banknotes are issued in denominations of 5ɑ, 10ɑ, 20ɑ, 50ɑ and 100ɑ, previously banknotes in denominations of 1ɑ, 2ɑ, 500ɑ and 1000ɑ were issued but they are retired. The denomination of 25ɑ has always been used for commemorative editions and is rarely used today.
