Nowadays ISO have introduced a system, ISO 4217, using three-letter codes to define currency (as opposed to simple names or currency signs), in order to remove the confusion that there are dozens of currencies called the dollar and many called the franc.
Even the pound is used in nearly a dozen different countries, all, of course, with wildly differing values.
In general, the three-letter code uses the ISO 3166-1 country code for the first two letters and the first letter of the name of the currency (D for dollar, for instance) as the third letter.

The Lebanese government’s National Investments Guarantee Corporation (NIGC), which was established in 1977, continues to insure new investments against political and war risks, riots, losses due to non-convertibility of currencies and transfer of profits.
Demand for the Lebanese pound continues to pick up as a result of the confidence in the Central Bank of Lebanon’s (CBL) ability to maintain a stable foreign exchange rate and monetary measures by the CBL encouraging placements in LL instruments.
