Cuban convertible peso to Philippine Peso

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 Philippine peso (international symbol: ₱, code: PHP, number: 608) is the currency of the Philippines that has existed since 1858. One peso is subdivided into 100 sentimos. Contemporary banknotes were developed back in 1969.

Since 1970, the peso exchange rate has been floating, regulated by the Central Bank of the Philippines. The entire money supply is located and used as a legal tender only within the state. The country has an official ban on the export of the national currency. Beginning with the year of 2013 the exchange rate of the Philippine currency against the US dollar has decreased significantly.
