Hong Kong Dollar to Armenian dram

The Hong Kong dollar (symbol: HK$, codes: HKD and 344) is the official currency of Hong Kong since 1934. It is subdivided into 100 cents. Currently, there are several generations of banknotes with denominations ranging from 10 to 1000 dollars, all of them being legal tenders.

In Hong Kong, local money is referred to as "man”, derived from the English word “money” and this is explained by strong influence of American culture. Although cent coins physically exist, hou- one tenth of a dollar is a subunit for accounting.

The Armenian dram (sign ֏, code AMD) is the national currency of the Republic of Armenia, used within the borders of this Caucasian country. 1 dram could be previously subdivided into 100 lum. However, there are no coins or notes worth less than 10 dram used right now.

The currency has been issued in 1993 after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Before that, the Soviet rubles had been in use. The country’s symbol on the notes was presented as iconic figures from the Armenian people, and as great architectural and art monuments as well. There is the national coat of arms and denomination decorated with a colorful design. The monetary unit’s name comes from the Greek drachma.
