Converting from Macedonian Denar (MKD) to Guinea Franc (GNF)

What is Macedonian Denar (MKD)

The Macedonian Denar (MKD) is the official currency of North Macedonia. Introduced in 1992, it replaced the erstwhile Yugoslav dinar at a rate of 1 MKD to 100 dinars. The name "denar" derives from the Latin word "denarius," a historical Roman coin. The currency is abbreviated as MKD, and its symbol is den.

The denar is subdivided into 100 smaller units called deni. Coins come in various denominations, including 1, 2, 5, 10, 50, and 100 deni, along with 1, 2, 5, 10, and 50 MKD coins. Banknotes are issued in larger denominations: 10, 50, 100, 200, 500, and 1,000 denars.

North Macedonia's central bank, the National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia, oversees the country's monetary policy. The denar has experienced fluctuations against other currencies, influenced by factors such as inflation, economic conditions, and regional stability. Despite these changes, the MKD remains essential for conducting daily transactions within the country.

What is Guinea Franc (GNF)

The Guinea Franc (GNF) is the official currency of Guinea, a country located in West Africa. Introduced in 1985, it replaced the previous currency, the syli. The GNF is subdivided into 100 smaller units known as centimes, although due to inflation, these smaller units are rarely used in everyday transactions.

The currency symbol for the Guinea Franc is "FG," and it is abbreviated as GNF. Banknotes in circulation include various denominations: 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, 20,000, and 50,000 francs. Coins are available in smaller denominations, but like the centime, they are not commonly utilized.

Guinea's central bank, the Central Bank of the Republic of Guinea, is responsible for issuing the GNF and managing the country's monetary policy. The economy of Guinea is heavily influenced by its rich natural resources, particularly bauxite and gold, which significantly impact the value of the GNF.
