A foreign currency which is used as the main currency in a country. This usually happens because a country's currency has been inflated to such an extent that it becomes worthless. For many years the US dollar has been used in countries outside of America as their currency. This is true of Mexico and has been true from time to time in various African countries - such as Zimbabwe. In fact, Zimbabwe also uses the South African rand as a xenocurrency since its own currency has collapsed completely.
