Units
The units of the Piastre are based off of the French Indochinese piastre with "cash" being the vietnamese term for "sapèque" originally defined as 1⁄200—1⁄600 a piastre, however in modern cases it is worth 1⁄100.
History
The piastre has been pegged to the dukesmark at Pt1=3/~ since its inception, however the Pt.1,000 (ℳ150) note has seen on and off support with some claiming it would be too high value to see circulation.
