Kyrgyzstani Som to Indonesian Rupiah

The Kyrgyz som (sign с, code KGS) is the national currency of the Kyrgyz Republic. Tyins are coins used for the Kyrgyz som exchange. Every KGS has 100 tyins.

The currency was introduced in 1993 after the dissolution of the USSR. The Soviet ruble was used before. The Russian ruble was also in use for some time. Notes have iconic political figures, poets are writers, famous composers depicted on them. From time to time, the state issues commemorative notes with an original vertical design.

The Indonesian Rupiah (symbol: Rp, code: IDR, number: 360) is the official currency of Indonesia. Informally Indonesians use the word "perak" ("silver" in Indonesian) in referring to rupiah. The rupiah was first introduced in the country in 1945.

However, the modern version of the currency, the so-called new rupiah is being issued since the redenomination in 1965. The exchange was made at the rate of 1000 old rupees per new one. The rupiah formally is divided into 100 sens, but physically coins denominated less than 1 Rp are discontinued. The banknotes depict national heroes, politicians, monuments, sceneries of the country, local people.
