Ventoran standard

The  (: estándar, symbol: Ɇ, code: EST) is the of Ventora. The standard subdivides into 100 cents (centavos). The State Bank of Ventora, the country's, sets the standard's value within a currency band based on several currencies. The State Bank also issues the notes and coins.

History
Following the economic difficulties as a result of the Coffee Wars in the mid-18th century, the king of Ventora introduced reforms and the standard as a common currency in an effort to reduce the wide fluctuations in values between the currencies of the various duchies, each of which had its own currency. Although the ducal currencies were not banned and each of the 26 duchies retained the authority to issue their own currencies until 1834, they gradually stopped doing so since it was easier to leave the costs and administration of the currency to the kingdom. This led to the currency's nickname as "sovereigns" (soberanos)) since it was nominally issued by the king.
