Travel Money Trivia - Polynesian Islands edition

  • The XPF was founded when the French franc was retired following WWII.
  • Every XPF banknote shows a landscape or historical figure from French Polynesia on one side, and New Caledonia on the other, so every note is like your own little postcard.
  • The XPF was used in 3 different forms across New Hebrides, French Polynesia and New Caledonia right up to 1985, until a little common sense kicked in.
  • The XPF is pegged to the Euro, ensuring stability for travellers and locals alike.
