Converting from Romanian New Leu (RON) to Norwegian Krone (NOK)

What is Romanian New Leu (RON)

The Romanian New Leu, often abbreviated as RON, is the official currency of Romania. Introduced in 2005, it replaced the older leu at a rate of 10,000 old lei to 1 new leu. The new currency was introduced to stabilize the Romanian economy, which was undergoing significant changes as the country prepared for European Union membership.

The symbol for the Romanian New Leu is "lei" or "L". The currency is subdivided into 100 bani (singular: ban). While RON is not as widely recognized as some other currencies, it plays an essential role in the region and is traded globally.

Banknotes of the RON come in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 200, 500, and coins of 1, 5, 10, 50 bani, and 1, 5, and 10 lei. The currency reflects the country's cultural heritage with images of notable figures and historical events depicted on the notes. Exchange rates for RON can fluctuate due to various factors, including economic data, inflation, and political stability.
