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 Panamanian Balboa (B/.)
The Panamanian Balboa (PAB, ISO 4217 code 590, symbol B/.) is the official currency of the Republic of Panama — named after the Spanish explorer Vasco Núñez 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 Panamá, BNP, est. 1904 in current form). Subdivided into 100 centésimos. Unique among world currencies: Panama issues NO banknotes for the balboa — only coins. Panama uses US dollar banknotes as the principal physical paper money in circulation since 1904. Coins: 1 centésimo, 5 centésimos (= 1 nickel), 10 centésimos (= 1 dime), 25 centésimos (= 1 quarter), 50 centésimos (= 1/2 USD), B/.1 (= 1 USD), B/.2 (rare commemorative). The balboa is pegged 1:1 to the US dollar since 1904 (the country was effectively dollarized from independence), making transactions between PAB coins and USD banknotes seamless. Panama is a high-income economy by Latin American standards (~$80B GDP), driven by the Panama Canal (which generates ~$3-4 billion annually in transit fees), the Colón Free Trade Zone (the world's 2nd-largest free trade zone), banking (Panama hosts ~80 international banks), and shipping registry (the Panamanian flag is the world's largest by registered tonnage).
