The Romanian leu is the main currency of Romania, issued and used within this European country. The leu is not accepted outside Romania. RON is used in the international currency exchange.

The Romanian leu is subdivided into bani. Every RON has 100 bani. The currency has been put in circulation in 1867. In its present form, the currency has been issued since 2005. Romania used foreign currency for a long time. These were Greece’s, Rome’s, and Macedonia’s coins. The Celtic and Thracian currencies were used as well.

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.
