Bolivian boliviano to Afghan afghani

The boliviano (sign Bs, code BOB) is the national currency of the country located is South America – Bolivia. Small coins called centavo are used as change for the Bolivian boliviano. One boliviano has 100 centavos.

The currency has first been issued in the 18th century, and was used between 1864 and 1963. Later, the country used peso, but due to inflation in 1987, the government came back to BOB once again. The rate of the modern boliviano is connected to the American dollar. After the 80s hyperinflation, the population was still using the old notes as change. There have been special seals put on them to reduce denomination.

Afghani (sign ؋, code AFN) is the currency of Afghanistan which is not used for payment in other countries. One afghani equals 100 pul coins. Afghani has been issued since 1926.

Originally, coins made only out of silver were used on the territory of the Islamic state. First notes were printed in 1935. The Afghan rupee had been used hand in hand with afghani until 1978. Up until 2002, there had been different types of afghani used in the country and issued by different military and political organizations: “davlati” and “dostumi”, but the new leader, Hamid Karzai, reformed the currency leaving only one type. Banknotes had architectural monuments, key industries and infrastructure depicted on them.
