The Belize dollar (sign Bz$, code BZD) is the currency of the country located in Central America – Belize. Previously, the country was named British Honduras. Every Belize dollar can be subdivided into 100 cents.

The currency has been introduced in 1885. However, the design of the notes has gone through several changes. As for now, majority of circulation is money of a format of 2003. Old banknotes are slowly going out of use. Despite the name change, you can still feel the spirit of the British Empire in the country. Thus, modern $ notes have a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.

The Jordanian dinar (sign JD, code JOD) is the official currency of Jordan. Piastres are used as change for the Jordanian dinar. The coins are also known as qirsh.

One JOD has 100 piastres. Formally, the qirsh is divided into fils, but the latter one is not used in circulation. The modern coins are minted out of copper, nickel and brass. The currency has been issued since 1950, replacing the outdated Palestinian pound. The Jordanian dinar is decorated with portraits of the state leaders, who were in charge of the country at different times. Kings are portrayed in traditional national clothing.
