The main currency of Albania is the Albanian Lek.

The Albanian lek (ISO code: ALL) is the national currency of the Republic of Albania. The plural of lek is lekë, with one Albanian lek consisting of 100 qindarka. Due to inflation, qindarka-denominated coins are no longer issued but are still accepted as legal currency.

The Albanian lek (ALL) used in the Republic of Albania was first issued for circulation by the National Bank of Albania in 1926. The currency derives its name from Alexander the Great, as the shortened form of his name is Leka in Albanian. Before 1926, Albania did not have its own national currency and adhered instead to a strict gold standard or relied on foreign money in exchange. Before the First World War, the Ottoman Turkish piastre circulated widely in the region.
