The metical (/ˈmɛtɪˌkæl/;[2] plural: meticais) is the currency of Mozambique, abbreviated with the symbol MZN or MT. It is nominally divided into 100 centavos. The name metical comes from Arabic مثقال (mithqāl),[3] a unit of weight and an alternative name for the gold dinar coin that was used throughout much of Africa until the 19th century.[4]
