<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kasia, post: 1495908, member: 31533&quot;]As far as a Pfennig goes, it was (pre-euro) the basic unit (least coin) of the decimal coin system in Germany, as it is/was 1/100 of the Mark in the same way that a Cent is the basic unit of a decimal coin system in the US and is 1/100 of a Dollar. Same with Kopeks being the basic unit (1/100) of a Ruble in Russia and Centavos the basic unit of a Peso in Mexico. </p><p><br /></p><p>The problem comes with trying to equate a Mark to a Dollar to a Ruble to a Peso. It really isn&#039;t the same. Currency fluctuates relative to each other. Even Canadian Cents and Dollars rarely have the same value as the US ones.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
