The Republic of Ecuador continues to produce its one centavo penny, which is minted by the Portuguese National Mint. Ecuador's decision to adopt the US dollar as its official currency originated with bank bailouts by the government, devaluation of its currency, and the government's fiscal deficit in 1999.
In 1856, the currency was pegged to the French franc, with 1 peso = 5 francs. From 1862, paper money was issued denominated in reales and pesos. The peso was formally adopted as the currency of Ecuador in 1871, replacing the real at a rate of 1 peso = 8 reales. It was subdivided into 100 centavos. In 1884, the peso was replaced by the sucre at par.
