Bulgarian Lev to Falkland Island Pound

The Bulgarian lev (international symbol: BNG, code: 975) is the national currency of Bulgaria. The lev is divided into 100 stotinki. Since 2002 the lev has been pegged to the euro at an exchange rate of 1.

95 lev for 1 euro. Bulgaria has not become part of the Eurozone so far and a complete transition to the European single currency has not yet taken place. The image of a lion on Bulgarian currency appeared in the 13th century. The first currency, called the “lion,” emerged in Bulgaria in 1879 and was in circulation in the country until 1952. The contemporary version appeared in 1999 after redenomination at a rate of 1000: 1.

The Falkland Islands pound (sign FK£, code FKP) is the national currency of a sovereign territory of Great Britain. It is used along with the pound sterling. Originally, FKP was subdivided into 20 shillings, and later into 100 pence.

Today, every FKP can be subdivided into 100 pence. Coins are also called pennies as a term of endearment. The currency appeared in 1899. Since then, the design of coins and banknotes has gone through several changes. At the moment, the rate of the Falkland Islands pound is tightly connected to fluctuations of the pound sterling.
