| Additional information |
Armenia reintroduced the dram in 1993 after the collapse of the Soviet Union, replacing the ruble at a time when the country was simultaneously fighting a war with Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh and experiencing near-total economic collapse. The 100 dram denomination in nickel plated steel replaced an earlier aluminum-bronze issue, part of a broader effort to stabilize a coinage system that had been improvised under extraordinary pressure.
