Norwegian Krone to Gibraltar Pound

The Norwegian krone (symbol: kr, code: NOK, number 578) is the national currency of Norway, valid in the country since 1874 to have replaced the Norwegian daler. Although nominally the krone is subdivided into 100 ore, coins denominations of less than 1 crone have been discontinued, and ore has existed only electronically since 2012. The banknotes design bears traditional Scandinavian decorations depicting ships, lighthouses, sea waves, cod.

The exchange rate varies depending on oil prices and other economic factors. The average inflation index is low,e.g. in autumn 2019 it was only 1.8%. During 2017 - 2019, all old banknotes were replaced in the country. They can be exchanged in banks until 2028.

The Gibraltar pound (sign £, code GIP) is a sovereign currency of Gibraltar. The currency is also known as the livre. It is used along with the British pound sterling at par.

Pennies are used as change for the Gibraltar pound. One GIP has 100 pennies. The currency became the main payment unit in 1898. Every 2 years, the Gibraltar’s Mint manufactures a 2-pound coin with a new design. There are coins telling a story of a well-known myth – 12 labors of Heracles.
