The currency is the Sri Lankan rupee.
You will often see currency symbols "Rs" (with and without a full stop and placed both before and after the amount) together with "රු" (and sometimes even "SLRs." in tourist oriented areas).
There are coins for 25 and 50 cents, 1 rupee, 2 rupees, and 5 rupees, as well as banknotes ranging from LKR10-5000.
