Malaysian Ringgit to Chilean Peso

The Malaysian ringgit (symbol: RM, codes: MYR and 458) is the official currency of Malaysia. One ringgit is subdivided into 100 sens (cents). The name of the currency is translated from Malay as "jagged.

" The banknotes depict the first head of the independent Malaysia King Tuanku Abdul Rahman. The contemporary currency replaced the Malaysian dollar, which was in use from 1967 through 1976. The currency shows low inflation - 1.1% as of autumn 2019. Until 1973 Brunei and Singaporean money were accepted in the country.

The Chilean peso (sign $, code CLP) is the national currency issued and spread only in Chile. The Chilean peso can be changed into coins named centavo. Every CLP has 100 centavos.

The currency had appeared in circulation in 1817, but was later replaced with escudo. However, the Chilean peso has been issued again. Today, both currencies are used at the same time. In 2008, the state mint has issued 50 commemorative coins with a misspelling of the country’s name. Some of these coins were sold at auction. Having a face value of 50 peso, their price could go up to 20 thousand peso. This nuisance led to the fact that the head of the mint was fired.
