Papua New Guinean Kina to Icelandic Króna

The kina (sign К, code PGK) is the currency of a state in Oceania – Papua New Guinea. The currency is not accepted for payment outside the country. One kina is subdivided into 100 smaller coins called toea.

The currency has become official in 1975. Before that, the country had a foreign currency, which was the Australian dollar. The appearance of the currency was connected to the fact that Papua New Guinea gained independence. At first, the Australian dollar also participated in payment operations, but in 1976, it was completely eliminated.

The Icelandic krona (symbol: kr, codes: ISK, and 352) is the national currency of Iceland. Since the country is not a member of the EU and the Eurozone, the krona is the only official currency in the state. One krona is subdivided into 100 aurar, but coins less than 1 krona have been discontinued.

The Icelandic krone banknotes have been printed since 1885, remaining one of the few European currencies to have been preserved virtually unchanged since the 19th century. In 1981, a denomination took place in Iceland. Citizens received the new krone at the rate of 100: 1.
