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 Peruvian Sol
The Peruvian Sol (PEN) - formally the "nuevo sol" (new sun) - was introduced in 1991 as part of a sweeping economic stabilisation programme that ended hyperinflation, which had reached 7,000% annually under the previous inti currency. The name "sol" is the Spanish word for "sun" and reflects the ancient Inca sun deity Inti. The Banco Central de Reserva del Peru manages monetary policy with a managed float. Peru is one of South America's strongest economies and the world's second largest copper producer, as well as a major producer of gold, zinc, and silver.
