About Nicaraguan Cordoba (C$)

The Nicaraguan Cรณrdoba (NIO, ISO 4217 code 558, symbol C$ โ€” distinct from the Canadian Dollar despite the same symbol) is the official currency of the Republic of Nicaragua โ€” named after Francisco Hernรกndez de Cรณrdoba, the Spanish conquistador who founded Granada (1524) and Leรณn (1524) in modern Nicaragua. Issued by the Banco Central de Nicaragua (BCN, est. 1961). Subdivided into 100 centavos. Banknotes: C$10, C$20, C$50, C$100, C$200, C$500, C$1,000 (the highest denomination; current 'Familia de Billetes' polymer series introduced 2014-2015 features Nicaraguan natural and cultural heritage โ€” Concepciรณn Volcano, Mombacho Volcano, San Cristรณbal Volcano, Cocibolca Lake, traditional dances, indigenous handicrafts); coins: 5 centavos, 10 centavos, 25 centavos, 50 centavos, C$1, C$5, C$10. Nicaragua's currency was formerly devalued via a 'crawling peg' against USD at a daily 5% annual rate (reduced to 3% in 2019, then 2% in 2020, then 1% in 2023) โ€” meaning the NIO/USD rate slowly weakens at a pre-announced pace. The current Daniel Ortega regime (Sandinista National Liberation Front, FSLN) has been in power continuously since 2007. Nicaragua faces significant US sanctions following 2018 anti-government protests and the 2021 election crackdown.

Madero); coins: 5ยข, 10ยข, 20ยข, 50ยข, $1, $2, $5, $10, $20. Mexico removed three zeros from its currency on January 1, 1993 โ€” the 'New Peso' (peso mexicano nuevo) replaced the old peso at 1 new = 1000 old, reflecting cumulative inflation from earlier decades.
