You saw it here first.

Bank of Sierra Leone announced this week in a press release that it will redenominate its currency by eliminating three zeros.  Thus a new leone will be equal to 1,000 current leones.

New banknotes of a smaller size will be printed, and the current ones will continue to be in use until a decision is taken on their withdrawal. 

It has been mentioned that the new banknotes may start circulating in November.
