Converting from Macedonian Denar (MKD) to Gibraltar Pound (GIP)

What is Macedonian Denar (MKD)

The Macedonian Denar (MKD) is the official currency of North Macedonia, a country located in Southeast Europe. Introduced in 1992, it replaced the Yugoslav dinar and is abbreviated as MKD. The symbol for the denar is "ден" or "MKD" when listed alongside other currencies.

The denar is divided into 100 deni, which are available in coins and banknotes. Coins are available in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 50 deni, and 1, 2, 5 denars. Banknotes come in several denominations, including 10, 50, 100, 200, 500, and 1000 denars.

The Central Bank of North Macedonia supervises the currency, ensuring its stability and value. The exchange rate of MKD can fluctuate based on various economic factors such as inflation, trade balance, and foreign investment. When converting MKD to other currencies, it's essential to check the current exchange rates, which can vary day by day.

What is Gibraltar Pound (GIP)

The Gibraltar Pound (GIP) is the official currency of Gibraltar, a British Overseas Territory located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula. The GIP was introduced in 1922 and is pegged to the British Pound Sterling (GBP) at par, meaning 1 GIP equals 1 GBP. Its symbol is "£" and is often denoted as GIP when necessary to avoid confusion with other currencies.

Like the denar, the Gibraltar Pound is divided into 100 pence. The GIP is available in different coins and banknotes, with coins in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and 50 pence, along with £1 and £2 coins. The banknotes include denominations of £5, £10, £20, and £50.

Gibraltar's financial system is closely linked to that of the UK, and as a result, the GIP often mirrors the economic trends of the British Pound. While Gibraltar can use GBP in daily transactions, the Gibraltar Pound is accepted within the territory.
