Serial type currval

I am wondering if it's possible to retrieve the current value of a
serial type field without using the name of the corresponding sequence?
I know that currval function takes the sequence name as a parameter, but
I would like to use the name of the serial field instead. Is this
possible?
Thanks.

Oleg
