About Romanian Leu (lei)
The Romanian Leu (RON, ISO 4217 code 946, symbol lei; the plural of 'leu' meaning 'lion' in Romanian) is the official currency of Romania, issued by Banca Națională a României (BNR, est. 1880). Subdivided into 100 bani. Banknotes: 1 leu, 5 lei, 10 lei, 20 lei, 50 lei, 100 lei, 200 lei, 500 lei (the highest denomination; current polymer series introduced 2005 features Romanian historical figures — Nicolae Iorga, Aurel Vlaicu, Nicolae Grigorescu, Ion Luca Caragiale, Mihail Kogălniceanu, Lucian Blaga, Constantin Brâncuși, George Enescu); coins: 1 ban, 5 bani, 10 bani, 50 bani. Romania redenominated its currency on July 1, 2005 — 1 'new leu' (RON) = 10,000 old lei (ROL — ISO 946 reused) — reducing dramatically large nominal values that had resulted from 1990s inflation. Romania joined the EU in 2007 with a commitment to Euro adoption (originally targeted 2015, then 2019, then 2024, now indefinitely postponed beyond 2030). The BNR targets 2.5% CPI inflation ± 1 percentage point. Romania is the EU's 7th-most-populous country (~19 million) and the 12th-largest EU economy by GDP (~$380B).
About Kyrgyzstani Som (лв)
The Kyrgyzstani Som (KGS, ISO 4217 code 417, symbol лв or som) is the official currency of the Kyrgyz Republic, issued by the National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic (NBKR, est. 1991). Subdivided into 100 tyiyn (no longer in circulation). Banknotes: 20 som, 50 som, 100 som, 200 som, 500 som, 1,000 som, 5,000 som (the highest denomination, introduced 2009; current series features Kyrgyz historical and cultural figures — Saadat Nurzhan, Kasym Tynystanov, Kurmandzhan Datka, Toktogul Satylganov, Saiakbay Karalaev, Toktogul Satylganov); coins: 1 som, 3 som, 5 som, 10 som. The som was introduced May 10, 1993 as Kyrgyzstan's first post-Soviet independent currency (it was actually the first Central Asian republic to introduce its own currency after Soviet collapse, before Kazakhstan or Uzbekistan). Kyrgyzstan is a landlocked Central Asian economy (~$10B GDP, ~7 million population) with mountainous terrain (~94% mountainous, the Tian Shan range). Major exports include gold (the Kumtor mine — Kyrgyzstan's largest single economic asset, run by Centerra Gold then nationalized 2022), agricultural products, and textiles. Like Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan depends heavily on remittances from migrant workers in Russia (~30% of GDP).
