Abbreviations of currencies according to norm ISO 4217

International standard ISO 4217 was created by the ISO with the aim of defining codes of three letters for all the currencies of the world.

This eliminates the confusions caused by some currency names like dollar, franc or frees, that are used in numerous countries but they have very different types of change.

The two first letters of the code are the two letters of the code of the country of the currency according to standard ISO 3166-1 and third it is normally the initial of the currency in him.

Also a code of three digits exists assigned to each currency, in the same way that exists a code of three digits assigned to each country like part of standard ISO 3166.

This norm also defines the relations between main the monetary unit and its subdivisions.

Standard ISO 4217 also includes codes for precious metals (gold, silver, palladium and platinum) and other definitions used in the financial world. Also special codes for tests exist (XTS), and to indicate no monetary transactions (XXX). All these codes begin with letter “X”. The precious metals use “X” and the chemical symbol of the metal (for example the silver is XAG). ISO 3166 never assigns codes of country beginning with “X”, reason why ISO 4217 can use codes that begin with that letter without risking to collisions.
