The European Monetary System lasted from 1979 to 1999, when it was succeeded by the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) and exchange rates for Eurozone countries were fixed against the new currency the Euro. [7] The ERM was replaced at the same time with the current Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM II).
Austria-Hungary also decimalized at the same time, resulting in a new currency system of 100 kreuzer = 1 gulden and 1 + 1 ⁄ 2 gulden = 1 Vereinsthaler. [4] In 1892 the Austro-Hungarian gulden was replaced by the krone, with each krone containing 100 ⁄ 328 grams of gold, at a rate of 1 gulden = 2 kronen (gold–silver ratio 18.2).
