About Icelandic Krona (kr)
The Icelandic Krรณna (ISK, ISO 4217 code 352, symbol kr) is the official currency of Iceland, issued by the Central Bank of Iceland (Seรฐlabanki รslands, est. 1961). Subdivided into 100 aurar (singular: eyrir, plural: aurar โ no longer in circulation since 2003). Banknotes: kr500 (poetess Jรณnas Hallgrรญmsson), kr1,000 (Bishop Brynjรณlfur Sveinsson), kr2,000 (painter Jรณhannes Sveinsson Kjarval), kr5,000 (suffragist Ragnheiรฐur Jรณnsdรณttir), kr10,000 (poet Jรณnas Hallgrรญmsson, introduced October 2013 โ the highest denomination); coins: kr1, kr5, kr10, kr50, kr100. The krรณna was famously the only OECD national currency to declare formal default during the Global Financial Crisis โ Iceland's three largest banks (Glitnir, Landsbanki, Kaupthing) collapsed October 2008, ISK lost ~50% of its value, and Iceland imposed capital controls (lifted gradually 2016-2017).
