Aanvullende informatie

Mauritania abandoned the CFA franc at independence in 1973, simultaneously introducing the ouguiya and its subunit the khoum — one of only two currencies in the world denominated in fifths rather than tenths. The 5 ouguiya was restruck in copper-plated steel during 2004–2005 as part of a broader cost-reduction effort across the coinage, replacing the older bimetallic and aluminum-bronze formats that had proven expensive to produce for a relatively small circulation economy.
