Danish Krone to Japanese Yen

The Danish krone (international symbol: kr, code: DKK ,number: 208) is the official currency of Denmark effective since 1873.The crone is subdivided into 100 era coins. The banknotes issued since 1945 are still in circulation.

The Danish currency is pegged to the euro at a fixed exchange rate of 7.4 krones for 1 euro, which is supposed to be preserved until the country joins the Eurozone. The Danish currency is used for cash payments and non-cash transfers in Greenland. It is also in circulation on the Faroe Islands, at the exchange rate for local crowns of 1: 1.

The Japanese yen (international symbol: ¥, code: JPY, number 392) is the national currency of Japan and is in issuance continuously since 1871. The yen is on the list of world reserve currencies and used in the IMF system. Yen derives from the Japanese word “en”, meaning "round" it is also close to the Chinese "yuan".

One yen is subdivided into 100 “sen”. However, coins in denominations of less than one yen became invalid in the middle of the 20th century. Today “sen” can only be used in the format of mathematical calculations. The banknotes depict the intellectual elite of Japan, and not political figures.
