In the everyday life of modern Bulgaria there are seven denominations of coins and six denominations of ...banknotes, sample of 1999. During the first seven or eight years of the existence of the lev, coins made of gold and silver were issued into circulation, and in 1928 the equality “1 lev \u003d 10.8695 mg of gold” was established. The 2nd World War made adjustments to the countrys economy. Occupied Bulgaria exchanged the national lev for the Reichsmark at a rate of 33.0:1. Liberated by the Soviet troops, Bulgaria changed its money again, but this time to the Soviet ruble (15:1). After the end of World War II, within two to three years, the exchange rate of the lev against the dollar rose to the level of 120.00-150.00 leva per dollar. The population did not have the opportunity to freely exchange money, even at such a rate.

History reference:
The Ugandan shilling is the currency of Uganda. The territory of Uganda occupies the central part of the elevated East African Plateau and covers a large number of rivers and freshwater lakes, among ...which lakes Victoria, Kyoga, George, Edward and Albert should be distinguished. The total area of Uganda exceeds 236 thousand square kilometers. The Ugandan shilling was introduced on 15 August 1966 to replace the East African shilling issued by the East African Monetary Authority for Kenya, Uganda, Tanganyika and Zanzibar. With the release of the national currency, the exchange of East African shillings 1: 1 for it and their gradual withdrawal from circulation began. From October 21 to October 29, 1979, the government carried out the first currency denomination. Due to high inflation, on May 18, 1987, another monetary reform was carried out, as a result of which a new Ugandan shilling was introduced at an exchange rate of 100: 1. But even this currency was already replaced in 2004 by the currency with the original name - the Ugandan shilling, which, due to the instability of the countrys economy, produces ever higher denominations.
