Australian Dollar to Norwegian Krone — exchange rate

The Australian dollar (symbol: $ ,code: AUD, number 036) is the currency of the Commonwealth of Australia. It is used not only on the territory of Australia, but also on the adjacent islands: Cocos Islands, Norfolk, and Christmas Islands. $ is identified as AUD or by the classic dollar sign on the global financial market.

One AUD is 100 cents. It has come into action in 1966, replacing the Australian pound. Since the late 80s, banknotes have been being made from special flexible plastic instead of paper. It makes money last longer in humid Australian climate. Interestingly, all banknotes have the same height, but are different in length. On the notes you can find portraits of historical and political figures, important buildings and objects. Australia also regularly issues commemorative coins worth 50 cents.

The Norwegian krone (kr) is the official currency issued and accepted for payment in the Kingdom of Norway. In foreign currency exchange, the term for the currency is NOK. The Norwegian krone could be previously subdivided into øre.

Every NOK had øre. However, in 2012, the last coins left in circulation – 50 øre – were eliminated. The Norwegian krone had a characteristic design in a marine style. The notes have lighthouses, sailboats, and rare sea animals. The currency floats independently.
