List of circulating currencies

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Alanmak (talk | contribs) at 06:06, 2 June 2009. The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This list of circulating currencies contains the 182 current official or de facto currencies of the 192 United Nations member states, 1 UN observer state, 4 partially recognized sovereign states, 6 unrecognized countries, and 32 dependencies. Only dependencies and unrecognized countries that use a currency other than that of the sovereign state that administers them or has de jure jurisdiction over them are listed here. Currencies used in places of extraterritoriality like the United Nations or the Sovereign Military Order of Malta and scrips used by private entities like the Disney dollar and the ora are not under the purview of this list.

A currency is a unit of exchange and hence a kind of money and medium of exchange. Currency includes paper banknotes and metal coins. Countries generally have a monopoly on the issuing of currency, although some countries share currencies with other countries. Today, currencies are the dominant means of exchange. Different countries may use the same term to refer to their respective currencies, even though the currencies may have little else to do with each other. A place that is technically part of another country sometimes uses a different currency from that of the parent country.

Notes

A This currency is not used in day to day commerce, but is legal tender. It is minted and/or printed as commemorative banknotes and/or coinage.
B This currency is being phased out with a revalued version or another currency, but is still legal tender.
C British banknotes are issued by the Bank of England and by some banks in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Laws on legal tender vary between various jurisdictions.[5]
D One cent equals ten mills (also spelled “mil” and “mille”), and (for the United States dollar) ten cents equal one dime.[6]
E One jiao equals ten fen.
F One piastre equals ten millimes.
G However, the ten-cent coin is the coin of lowest value that is still in circulation. During a transaction, values of less than ten cents are usually rounded up to the nearest ten-cent.
H One sen equals ten rin.
I One piastre equals ten fils and one dirham equals 10 piastres.
J Rappen is German; in French it is centime; in Italian it is centesimo.
