History reference:
The state monetary unit of Hungary is the Hungarian Forint (Hungarian Forint, international code - HUF). Used since 1946, before that the pengő was used as the Hungarian currency, which could not sur...vive the largest hyperinflation in history. Previously, forints had small change coins - fillers, but now they are out of circulation. When the Hungarian National Bank first issued the new currency, banknotes denoting 10 and 100 forints entered circulation. Each forint was subdivided into 100 fillers. Until 1991, following the inflationary processes, the National Bank expanded the available set of banknotes by issuing banknotes with a higher denomination. Later, it was decided to revise the design of the currency, and since 2001, on each banknote, on the one hand, a Hungarian statesman is depicted, and on the other, an event associated with his activities. It should be noted that there are no watermarks on the forints. Protection against counterfeiters is provided, first of all, by a holographic strip.

History reference:
The tala is the currency of Samoa. During the German rule, the German mark was in circulation on the islands, which was replaced after the end of the First World War by the Samoan pound. Control over... the circulation of the Samoan pound was carried out by a special financial department of New Zealand. After the declaration of independence by Western Samoa, the formed Central Bank of Samoa issued the national currency, the Samoan tala, into circulation, which gradually replaced the pound, which was exchanged at a ratio of 1 pound to 2 tals. Coins for Western Samoa were not issued, until 1933 British coins were used, and after - New Zealand coins. On July 10, 1967, as a result of the monetary reform, the Samoan pound was replaced by the Samoan tali at a ratio of 1 pound = 2 tals. The names "tala" and "sene" are Samoan equivalents of the words "dollar" and "cent". 2008 Samoan tala banknotes are made of plastic.
