Falkland Island Pound to Indonesian Rupiah

The Falkland Islands pound (sign FK£, code FKP) is the national currency of a sovereign territory of Great Britain. It is used along with the pound sterling. Originally, FKP was subdivided into 20 shillings, and later into 100 pence.

Today, every FKP can be subdivided into 100 pence. Coins are also called pennies as a term of endearment. The currency appeared in 1899. Since then, the design of coins and banknotes has gone through several changes. At the moment, the rate of the Falkland Islands pound is tightly connected to fluctuations of the pound sterling.

The Indonesian Rupiah (symbol: Rp, code: IDR, number: 360) is the official currency of Indonesia. Informally Indonesians use the word "perak" ("silver" in Indonesian) in referring to rupiah. The rupiah was first introduced in the country in 1945.

However, the modern version of the currency, the so-called new rupiah is being issued since the redenomination in 1965. The exchange was made at the rate of 1000 old rupees per new one. The rupiah formally is divided into 100 sens, but physically coins denominated less than 1 Rp are discontinued. The banknotes depict national heroes, politicians, monuments, sceneries of the country, local people.
