The Canadian dollar is the currency of Canada and since 2011 is in seventh place in the list of the most traded currencies in the world, accounting for 5.3% of the daily turnover in the world. Abbreviated this unit is referred to as the dollar sign preceded by the letter C - C$.
The History of money is. In April 1871, the canadian Parliament adopted a Uniform law relating to the currency. He replaced the monetary units of the different provinces of the country on a single system – canadian dollar. By the beginning of world war II exchange rate to US dollar was set at C $ 1.10 = US $ 1.00. After some time, this quotation was changed, and the value of cash units equal. In 1950, the canadian dollar was “released”. Re-fixation occurred only in 1962, at the level of C $ 1.00 = US $ 0,925 that existed until 1970, after which the value of the currency again became free, remaining such to the present.
Today, the canadian dollar is issued in the form of coins and banknotes. First produced by the Royal mint of Canada in Winnipeg, and is now found in denominations of 5, 10, 25 and 50 cents and one and two dollars. Previously, there was a coin worth one cent, production of which was discontinued on the fourth of February 2013. Since that time, the amount of cash payment may be rounded to five cents, despite the fact that the penny remains legal tender.
The coin generally has canadian symbols (usually of the animal or plant world) on the reverse side and the portrait of Elizabeth II on the obverse. However, some pennies, which remained in circulation from earlier times are portrait of George VI. Coins fifty cents meet in treatment are rare and often collected by collectors.
