The Dong is the currency of Vietnam since May 3, 1978. It is issued by the State Bank of Vietnam. It has the symbol ₫. It is subdivided into 10 hào. However, the hào is now worth so little that it is no longer issued. In Vietnamese, đồng literally means copper. This originates from the practice of minting coins from copper before French colonization. When Vietnam was part of French Indochina, the standard unit of currency was the French Indochinese piastre. The Vietnamese text on these currencies called it the đồng or, less commonly, the bạc ("silver"). Below are some of the polymer images of the Vietnam Dong Currency.
