Hong Kong Dollar to Bulgarian Lev

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 Bulgarian lev (international symbol: BNG, code: 975) is the national currency of Bulgaria. The lev is divided into 100 stotinki. Since 2002 the lev has been pegged to the euro at an exchange rate of 1.

95 lev for 1 euro. Bulgaria has not become part of the Eurozone so far and a complete transition to the European single currency has not yet taken place. The image of a lion on Bulgarian currency appeared in the 13th century. The first currency, called the “lion,” emerged in Bulgaria in 1879 and was in circulation in the country until 1952. The contemporary version appeared in 1999 after redenomination at a rate of 1000: 1.
