Croatian Kuna to Ethiopian Birr

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 Ethiopian birr (sign Br, code ETB) is a currency issued and accepted for payment on the territory of Ethiopia. The Ethiopian birr can be subdivided into smaller coins – cents. Every ETB has 100 cents.

The currency has been issued since 1976, replacing the Ethiopian dollar. The banknotes’ design embodies the character and uniqueness of the country. You can see portraits of local people, traditional farm animals, coffee plantations and people working in fields with oxen.
