Nigerian Naira to Vietnamese Dong

The Nigerian naira (sign ₦, code NGN) is the national currency of Nigeria, a state located in Africa. The currency does not circulate in other countries. The Nigerian naira can be subdivided into kobo.

Every NGN has 100 kobo. The currency has first been issued in 1973, replacing the Nigerian pound. In 2014, the Treasury of Nigeria issued a series of commemorative banknotes worth 100 naira. The notes have a new design, an additional level of protection, and a code that refers you to a site with the history of the country.

The Vietnamese dong (sign ₫, code VND) is a currency used on the territory of Vietnam. One dong contains 100 xu or hào. When Vietnam was colonized by France, the country used the Indochinese piastres.

Only in 1947, the government managed to issue its own currency. Nevertheless, the Indochinese piastre was in circulation up to 1954. The name “dong” translates as bronze or copper. Since 2003, the country has been issuing notes of a new format made not out of paper, but out of synthetic polymer which can last longer, particularly in humid climates.
