Bangladeshi Taka to US Dollar

The Bangladeshi taka (sign ৳, code BDT) is the national currency used and issued in the Republic of Bangladesh. Until recently, 1 taka correlated to 100 coins – poysha. Today, they are not used in circulation.

The Bangladeshi taka has appeared in 1972. Before that, the republic was in the Pakistan union and used the Pakistani rupee. While issuing commemorative banknotes devoted to the 40th anniversary of the currency, there has been made an unpleasant mistake in the name of the country. Afterwards, it was fixed, but the notes now are part of different private collections.

The US dollar is one of the main reserve currencies in the world.Depending on denomination, the banknotes bear on the front side portraits of the statesmen - Washington, Lincoln, Jackson, Jefferson, Franklin, and on the reverse - historical monuments such as the Capitol, the White House or the Treasury.
