About Russian Ruble
The ruble or rouble is the currency of the Russian Federation. The ruble is subdivided into 100 kopecks. It is used in Russia as well as in the parts of Ukraine under Russian military occupation and in Russian-occupied parts of Georgia.
The ruble was the currency of the Russian Empire and of the Soviet Union. In 1992, the currency imagery underwent a redesign as a result of the fall of the Soviet Union. The first Russian ruble replaced the Soviet ruble in September 1993 at par.
On 1 January 1998, preceding the Russian financial crisis, the ruble was redenominated with the new code "RUB" and was exchanged at the rate of 1 RUB = 1,000 RUR. WikipediaAbout Argentine Peso
