Ghanaian Cedi to Azerbaijan Manat

The Ghanaian cedi (sign GH₵, code GHS) is the currency used in circulation in Ghana. The currency is not used outside the country. The Ghanaian cedi uses pesewa as change.

One cedi equals 100 pesewas. In 1965, the cedi became the sole currency in the country. Before that, Ghana had changed its currency several times. Since the country was a British colony, its territory allowed pounds sterling and later on, it was replaced with the West African pound. Afterwards, the Ghanaian pound took its place. All notes, except 50 cedi, depict portraits of the state’s politicians. The 50-cedi banknote portrays the cocoa fruit.

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.
