Investopedia explains ALL (Albanian Lek)
The Albanian lek was introduced by the National Bank of Albania and has been in use since 1926. Between 1946 and 1965, the lek was pegged to the Soviet ruble at 12.5 lekë to 1 ruble. After 1965, the revaluation of the ruble created inequalities in exchange, so a second lek was issued, which was equal to 10 old lekë.
