    A short history of our banknotes and
    coins .
    The first Lek were Bronze coins introduced in
    denominations of 5 and 10 qindar leku alongside nickel coins
    in 1/4; 1/2 ; 1 lek1,2 silver and 5 franga . Franga coins
    were used in our country from 1926 up to 1939 and depicted
    Zog 1 ,who was the King on the Albanians at that time.
    During Albania ‘s capitulation to Italy a new series of coins
    with the portrait of Victor Emanuel III were used until 1941.
     After the liberation of Albania from Nazi occupation in
    1947 the Communist party took control of the country and
    new zinc coins were introduced . These coins have
    denominations of ½ ; 1;2 and 5 leke.

    * The first Albanian coins


    This currency was pegged to the Soviet ruble and
    was in use until the currency reform of 1965.
     During Soviet occupation (1946-1965) the lek was
    pegged to the Soviet ruble at 12.5 leke to 1 ruble.
    The second lek exchanged with the first leke at a
    rate of 10 old leke to one new lek. .
    The issue of a second leke was necessary because
    of the revaluation of the ruble which created
    inequalities after 1965.
