Croatian Kuna to Bahamian Dollar

The Croatian Kuna (symbol: kn, codes: HKR and 191) is the official currency of Croatia, which existed from 1941 through 1945,and was revived in 1994. The name is given in honor of marten pelts, which in the old times was a means of payment. The new Banknotes completely replaced the Croatian dinar by 1995.

Kuna is subdivided into 100 lipa. Banknotes bear images depicting palaces, fortresses, portraits of historical figures of the country. Although the country has joined the EU since 2013, the transition to the euro has not yet taken place. The authorities of Croatia are considering the issue of joining the Eurozone.

The Bahamian dollar (sign B$, code BSD) is used for payment in the Bahamas. Cent is used as change for the Bahamian dollar. Every BSD has 100 cents.

The currency has been introduced into circulation in 1966. Before that, pound sterling was used as the currency. There is an agreement signed between the Bahamas and the USA that allows to use both currencies on the territory of the island. Thus, tourists, who come on vacation, can use the American dollar to pay for services and purchases.
