History reference:
The Chinese Yuan is the official currency of the Peoples Republic of China. Until the beginning of the 20th century, in China, for large-scale settlements, they used silver ingots - lyans. Small purc...hases were made using bronze round coins with a square hole in the center - qian, which Europeans call "keshi". Silver yuan began to be made in 1835. The use of silver coins and silver liang was banned in China in 1935. Instead, a boom in paper money began to grow - fabi. A certain easing in monetary policy occurred only in 2005, when the Chinese authorities carried out a revaluation of the yuan, raising its value by 2%. By 2008, the yuan appreciated by more than 20% to 6.82 yuan per US dollar. Nevertheless, even today, the PRC continues to enjoy certain foreign trade advantages, which are based on the undervalued exchange rate of the national currency.

History reference:
Currency abbreviation or currency symbol for the Argentine nuevo peso (ARS), the currency for Argentina. The Argentine song Nuevo was first seen in 1992 when it replaced the australium in the convers...ion of 1 peso to 10,000 australia. Other names for the currency include peso convertible and nuevo peso convertible. The Argentine Nuevo Peso was pegged to the US dollar from 1 peso to one dollar form from 1992 to 2001. In 2002, the peso floated and devalued by about 75%, helping to improve export competitiveness. The export boom led to a massive influx of US dollars into the Argentine economy, which led to the stabilization of the national currency. Some time later, the Central Bank announced support for a strategy to keep the exchange rate between 2.90 and 3.10 pesos to the US dollar in order to maintain export competitiveness. When necessary, the Central Bank prints pesos and buys dollars on the free market (sometimes in large quantities, in the order of 10 to 100 million US dollars a day) to protect the peso from inflation, 27,000 million US dollars have accumulated in the vaults of the Central Bank, despite spending $9,810 million in payment to the IMF in January 2006.
