About Bolivian Boliviano (Bs.)

The Bolivian Boliviano (BOB, ISO 4217 code 068, symbol Bs.) is the official currency of the Plurinational State of Bolivia, issued by the Central Bank of Bolivia (BCB, est. 1928). Subdivided into 100 centavos. Banknotes: Bs.10, Bs.20, Bs.50, Bs.100, Bs.200 (the highest denomination; current 'Familia de Billetes' series introduced 2018 features Bolivian historical figures and natural landmarks โ€” Genoveva Rรญos, Eduardo Avaroa, Adela Zamudio, Bartolina Sisa, Tรบpac Katari, Salar de Uyuni โ€” the world's largest salt flat, the Madidi National Park, Lake Titicaca, the Royal Cordillera mountains); coins: 10 centavos, 20 centavos, 50 centavos, Bs.1, Bs.2, Bs.5. Bolivia replaced the previous boliviano (BOB ISO code 068) on January 1, 1987 at a rate of 1 new boliviano = 1,000,000 old pesos bolivianos (BOP) โ€” ending a hyperinflation crisis that had reached 24,000% in 1985 (the worst non-wartime hyperinflation outside of Zimbabwe and Weimar Germany). Bolivia is home to the world's largest lithium reserves (~21 million tonnes per USGS, in the Salar de Uyuni and Salar de Coipasa), though commercial extraction remains limited. The BCB targets stable exchange rates (informally pegged to USD around Bs.6.91 per USD).

About Canadian Dollar (C$)

The Canadian Dollar (CAD, ISO 4217 code 124, symbol C$) is the official currency of Canada, issued by the Bank of Canada (est. 1934). Subdivided into 100 cents. Banknotes are polymer (since 2011-2013 transition): C$5, C$10 (featured Viola Desmond as the first non-royal woman on a Canadian regular-circulation note, 2018), C$20 (Queen Elizabeth II โ†’ King Charles III planned), C$50, C$100; coins: 5ยข (nickel), 10ยข (dime), 25ยข (quarter), 50ยข (rare), C$1 ('loonie' featuring the common loon Gavia immer, 1987-), C$2 ('toonie', bimetallic, 1996-). The 1ยข penny was withdrawn from circulation 2013 (cash transactions rounded to nearest 5ยข). CAD is closely correlated with crude oil prices โ€” Canada is the world's 4th-largest oil producer (~5 million bpd) and the largest US import source.
