US dollar $

At a time when Eastern Europe was immersed in communism and the availability of goods was low, the US dollar was a very desirable currency. The older generation remembers the times of Pewex - where you could buy virtually everything for this currency. Today, the currency is no longer available from a currency exchange dealer, but at any currency exchange office, and the exchange rate is regulated by the stock exchange.

The US dollar is a means of payment, of course, in the United States of America, this group also includes Ecuador, Micronesia, El Salvador, the Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, East Timor, Saba and Panama. Until 1973, the value of this popular means of payment was solely calculated based on the value of gold on the market and exchanges. After this year and until now, it is based on relations with other economies and other factors - the exchange rate is completely floating. The dollar has been one of the most important currencies in the world since time immemorial and its name comes from the word thaler and it became the US monetary unit in 1785. Unfortunately, although banknotes are practically impossible to counterfeit, their durability has not been improved (one dollar in circulation lasts only two years) it is possible that it is about the composition - it is seventy-five% cotton and twenty-five% linen - of course, the exact composition is strictly secret. Because of this shelf life, U.S. mints always have a hard time replacing worn-out banknotes with new ones. The USD/EUR exchange rate in our country has always been lower, although the US economy is one of the largest, with incredible opportunities.
