The Kamanian Pound (Ladino: Lira; Polish: Punts; Dutch: Pfund) is the currency of Kamany. Kambank, the central bank of Kamany, issues banknotes and coins. It is divided into 100 deni. The official symbol, L. , is widely used by businesses and advertisers in all languages.

The Kamanian Pound was first issued in 1875 when it replaced the Kamanian Florin. After a period of hyperinflation in 1922-1923, a second version of the Pound was issued in March 1924. In 1955, a third version of the Pound was issued. It stayed in use until the 1st of July 2019 when the last version started to circulate.
