About Armenian Dram (֏)

The Armenian Dram (AMD, ISO 4217 code 051, symbol ֏) is the official currency of the Republic of Armenia and the disputed Republic of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), issued by the Central Bank of Armenia (CBA, est. 1993). Subdivided into 100 luma (no longer in physical circulation). Banknotes: ֏500, ֏1,000, ֏2,000, ֏5,000, ֏10,000, ֏20,000, ֏50,000, ֏100,000 (the highest denomination, introduced 2009; the current 'New Generation' series introduced 2017-2018 features Armenian historical figures — Aram Khachaturian, Komitas, Ivan Aivazovsky, Hovhannes Tumanyan, Mesrop Mashtots, Anania Shirakatsi, Movses Khorenatsi, William Saroyan); coins: ֏10, ֏20, ֏50, ֏100, ֏200, ֏500. The Armenian dram replaced the Soviet ruble on November 22, 1993. The dram symbol ֏ was officially adopted June 2012, derived from the first letter of the Armenian word for dram. Armenia is a landlocked Caucasus country (~3 million population) with significant diaspora globally (~7+ million Armenians abroad, particularly in Russia, US California, France, Lebanon). The 2020 Second Nagorno-Karabakh War and 2023 Azerbaijani offensive caused major economic disruption. CBA targets 4% CPI inflation ± 1.5 percentage points.

About Panamanian Balboa (B/.)

The Panamanian Balboa (PAB, ISO 4217 code 590, symbol B/.) is the official currency of the Republic of Panama — named after the Spanish explorer Vasco Núñez de Balboa, who in 1513 became the first European to see the Pacific Ocean from the Americas. Issued by the National Bank of Panama (Banco Nacional de Panamá, BNP, est. 1904 in current form). Subdivided into 100 centésimos. Unique among world currencies: Panama issues NO banknotes for the balboa — only coins. Panama uses US dollar banknotes as the principal physical paper money in circulation since 1904. Coins: 1 centésimo, 5 centésimos (= 1 nickel), 10 centésimos (= 1 dime), 25 centésimos (= 1 quarter), 50 centésimos (= 1/2 USD), B/.1 (= 1 USD), B/.2 (rare commemorative). The balboa is pegged 1:1 to the US dollar since 1904 (the country was effectively dollarized from independence), making transactions between PAB coins and USD banknotes seamless. Panama is a high-income economy by Latin American standards (~$80B GDP), driven by the Panama Canal (which generates ~$3-4 billion annually in transit fees), the Colón Free Trade Zone (the world's 2nd-largest free trade zone), banking (Panama hosts ~80 international banks), and shipping registry (the Panamanian flag is the world's largest by registered tonnage).
