About Panamanian Balboa (B/.)
The Panamanian Balboa (PAB, ISO 4217 code 590, symbol B/.) is the official currency of the Republic of Panama โ named after the Spanish explorer Vasco Nรบรฑez 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 Panamรก, BNP, est. 1904 in current form). Subdivided into 100 centรฉsimos. Unique among world currencies: Panama issues NO banknotes for the balboa โ only coins. Panama uses US dollar banknotes as the principal physical paper money in circulation since 1904.
