Qatari Rial to Armenian dram

The Qatari riyal (sign QR, code QAR) is the official currency issued and accepted within the emirate-state of Qatar. The Qatari riyal is subdivided into dirhams. Every QAR has 100 dirhams.

The currency appeared in 1973 replacing the previous currency – the Qatar and Dubai riyal. This necessity to issue its own value was due to the fact that Dubai joined the United Arab Emirates. In 2017, the currency suffered from a large-scale inflation. However, the rate has stabilized itself.

The Armenian dram (sign ֏, code AMD) is the national currency of the Republic of Armenia, used within the borders of this Caucasian country. 1 dram could be previously subdivided into 100 lum. However, there are no coins or notes worth less than 10 dram used right now.

The currency has been issued in 1993 after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Before that, the Soviet rubles had been in use. The country’s symbol on the notes was presented as iconic figures from the Armenian people, and as great architectural and art monuments as well. There is the national coat of arms and denomination decorated with a colorful design. The monetary unit’s name comes from the Greek drachma.
