ISO 4217 - Without Currency Code

Without Currency Code

A number of currencies are not included in ISO 4217, because these currencies are: (a) not per se an independent currency but a variant of another currency, (b) a legal tender only issued as commemorative banknotes or coinage, or (c) a currency of an unrecognized or partially recognized state. These currencies are:

• Alderney pound (1:1 pegged to the pound sterling)
• Bitcoin (not issued by a recognized state)
• Cook Islands dollar (1:1 pegged to the New Zealand dollar)
• Faroese króna (1:1 pegged to the Danish krone)
• Guernsey pound (1:1 pegged to the pound sterling)
• Isle of Man pound (1:1 pegged to the pound sterling)
• Jersey pound (1:1 pegged to the pound sterling)
• Kiribati dollar (1:1 pegged to the Australian dollar)
• Maltese scudo (1:0.24 pegged to the euro)
• Somaliland shilling (state of issue is viewed as de jure part of Somalia, exchange rate not fixed)
• Transnistrian ruble (state of issue is viewed as de jure part of Moldova)
• Tuvaluan dollar (1:1 pegged to the Australian dollar)

The following non-ISO codes are, however, sometimes used commercially:

In addition, GBX is sometimes used (for example on the London Stock Exchange) to denote Penny sterling, a subdivision of pound sterling, the currency for the United Kingdom.
