Birr means "silver" in the traditional language (Amheric).
From Wikipedia:
A new Ethiopian coinage appeared about 1903. The new silver birr maintained the same weight and fineness as the talari,
That would be about a third of an ounce of pure silver.
You need nearly 2,000 (paper) birr today to obtain as much silver as 1 birr, produced in 1903, had.
