About Mexican Peso ($)
The Mexican Peso (MXN, ISO 4217 code 484, symbol $ or Mex$) is the official currency of the United Mexican States, issued by the Banco de México (Banxico, est. 1925). Subdivided into 100 centavos. Banknotes: $20 (polymer), $50, $100, $200, $500, $1000 (the current 'F Family' series introduced 2018-2021 features Mexican biomes — Tropical Rainforest, Mountain Forest, Desert, etc. — and historical figures like Benito Juárez, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Francisco I. Madero); coins: 5¢, 10¢, 20¢, 50¢, $1, $2, $5, $10, $20. Mexico removed three zeros from its currency on January 1, 1993 — the 'New Peso' (peso mexicano nuevo) replaced the old peso at 1 new = 1000 old, reflecting cumulative inflation from earlier decades. Mexico is the world's 12th-largest economy by nominal GDP (~$1.8T in 2024 per IMF WEO) and the world's largest silver producer. Banxico targets 3% CPI inflation ± 1% band per the Monetary Policy Framework. MXN is a freely traded emerging-market currency.
About Kenyan Shilling (KSh)
The Kenyan Shilling (KES, ISO 4217 code 404, symbol KSh; also written /=) is the official currency of the Republic of Kenya, issued by the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK, est. 1966). Subdivided into 100 cents (no longer in use). Banknotes: KSh50, KSh100, KSh200, KSh500, KSh1,000 (current 'Kenya Generations' series introduced 2019 features Kenya's history, biodiversity, and infrastructure — replacing the previous series that featured presidential portraits, in response to a 2010 constitutional provision prohibiting portrayals of individuals on legal tender); coins: KSh1, KSh5, KSh10, KSh20, KSh40 (commemorative). Kenya is East Africa's largest economy (~$110B GDP in 2024). Kenya is also a global pioneer in mobile-money — M-Pesa (launched 2007 by Safaricom + Vodafone) has ~80% of Kenyan adults registered, processing ~$314B in transactions in fiscal year 2022 per CBK — making Kenya effectively a 'cashless' society for most retail transactions in the urban areas. CBK targets 5% CPI inflation ± 2.5% band. Major exports include tea (the world's #2 producer), cut flowers (~38% of EU cut-flower imports), coffee, and horticulture.
