About Saudi Riyal (﷼)
The Saudi Riyal (SAR, ISO 4217 code 682, symbol ﷼ or SR) is the official currency of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, issued by the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA — Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority renamed to Saudi Central Bank in 2020, est. 1952). Subdivided into 100 halalas. Banknotes: SR1, SR5, SR10, SR50, SR100, SR200 (the SR200 introduced 2021 marking 5 years of Vision 2030), SR500 (the highest denomination; current 'Saudi 7th Edition' series features King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud portrait on all denominations and historic Saudi landmarks); coins: 1 halala, 5 halalas, 10 halalas, 25 halalas, 50 halalas, SR1, SR2. SAR has been pegged to USD at SR3.75 per USD since June 1986 (the longest-standing currency peg in the Gulf, predating the GCC monetary union proposal). Saudi Arabia is the world's 2nd-largest oil producer (~10 million bpd, after the US's ~13 million), the de facto leader of OPEC+, and holds the world's 2nd-largest proven oil reserves (~267 billion barrels per BP Statistical Review). Saudi Arabia hosts Aramco — the world's most profitable company by net income.
About Egyptian Pound (£)
The Egyptian Pound (EGP, ISO 4217 code 818, symbol £E or ج.م — gineh masry in Arabic) is the official currency of the Arab Republic of Egypt, issued by the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE, est. 1898 as National Bank of Egypt; CBE in current form 1961).
