The quetzal (ISO 4217 code: GTQ) is the currency of Guatemala. It is named after the national bird of Guatemala, the Resplendent Quetzal and is divided into 100 cents (centavos in legal Spanish or lenes in Guatemalan traditional Spanish). The plural can be either quetzales (as it is in Spanish) or quetzals (in a slightly anglicised form). In ancient Mayan culture, the quetzal bird's tail feathers were used as currency. Having currency named after the bird carries a strong historical value indicative of the native people of Guatemala.

Compra uma nota idêntica em/You can buy a similar note on:


The peso (ISO 4217 code: CUP, sometimes called the "national peso") is one of two official currencies in use in Cuba, the other being the convertible peso (CUC). It is subdivided into 100 centavos.

Dollars are sometimes referred to colloquially as “pesos” and convertible pesos as “dollars”; which currency is meant should be understood from the context. To add to the confusion, “pesos” may refer to both moneda nacional and convertible pesos even in cases where (to the tourists, at least) it is not obvious which currency is being used. Cuban state workers receive a portion of their wages in convertible pesos, the rest in the normal pesos. Shops selling basics, like fruit and vegetables, generally only accept the normal peso, while “dollar shops” sell the rest.

The franc is the currency of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is subdivided into 100 centimes.
During Belgian colonial rule, currency denominated in centimes and francs was issued for use in Congo. These francs were equal in value to the Belgian franc. From 1916, the Congolese franc also circulated in Rwanda and Burundi. From 1952, the currency was issued bearing the names Belgian Congo (either "Congo Belge" or "Belgische Congo") and "Ruanda-Urundi".

In 1960, Rwanda and Burundi adopted their own franc, whilst, between 1960 and 1963, Katanga also issued its own franc.

The franc remained Congo's currency after independence until 1967, when the zaïre was introduced, at a rate of 1 zaïre = 1000 francs.
