About Bulgarian Lev
The Bulgarian Lev (BGN) is the official currency of Bulgaria, with a history dating to 1880 when it replaced the Turkish piastre after Bulgaria's liberation. The word "lev" means "lion" in Bulgarian. Following a severe financial crisis in 1996-1997, a currency board was established and the lev was pegged first to the Deutsche Mark and then to the Euro at 1.95583 BGN per EUR. Bulgaria is an EU member since 2007 and is working towards adopting the Euro. The Bulgarian National Bank issues the lev, which is divided into 100 stotinki.
About Bosnian Convertible Mark
The Bosnian Convertible Mark (BAM) was introduced in 1995 following the Dayton Peace Agreement that ended the Bosnian War. It replaced the Bosnian dinar and has been pegged to the Euro at a fixed rate of 1.95583 BAM per EUR since 1998 (originally pegged to the Deutsche Mark). This currency board arrangement ensures full convertibility and monetary discipline. The Central Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina issues the BAM but has no power to conduct independent monetary policy due to the peg. The "marka" design on banknotes reflects both Bosniak and Croat cultural heritage.
