Kenyan Shilling to Bulgarian Lev

The Kenyan shilling (sign KSh, code KES) is the official national currency of Kenya. The currency is not used in other countries. Cents are used as change for the Kenyan shilling.

One KES has 100 cents. The currency appeared in 1966. Before that, Kenya used the East African shilling. Today, only notes and coins issued after 2003 are officially accepted for payment. Outdated notes are being steadily taken out of the market for elimination.

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.
