Cuban convertible peso to Azerbaijan Manat

The Cuban convertible peso (sign $, code CUC) is one of the two currencies used in Cuba. The name has become a reason for an unofficial name of the currency. It is often called cuc.

One peso can be exchanged for 100 centavos. The convertible peso has first been introduced in Cuba in 1994 to allow for an easier payment process for tourists and diplomats within the country. The introduction of the convertible peso as a second currency has led to an increase in fraud directed at foreign citizens. Since 2013, Cuba has started to gradually decrease the use of this currency, turning to the regular Cuban peso.

The Azerbaijani manat (sign ₼, code AZN) is the currency that operates within Azerbaijan. Manat can be subdivided into qapik. AZN equals 100 qapik, at the moment, there are coins worth 1 qapik used in circulation.

The Azerbaijani manat has been adopted as the national currency in 1992 after the dissolution of the USSR replacing the Soviet ruble. Many people notice that the national currency of Azerbaijan resembles euro. The Australian designer Robert Kalina, who has also participated in creating euro, took part in designing the notes.
