The national currency of Armenia, the dram, was first issued on November 22, 1993. 1 dram can be divided into 100 lum. The name dram comes from Greek, and it means money . In 1994, the Central Bank of Armenia introduced aluminum coins in denominations of 10, 20, and 50 luma, 1, 3, 5, and 10 dram. In 2003 and 2004, a new coinage was introduced, consisting of aluminum 10, copper-plated steel 20, brass-plated steel 50, nickel-plated steel 100, brass 200, and bimetallic (brass outer ring and cupronickel center) 500 dram coins.
Armenia minted its first commemorative coins in 1994, and has produced such coins annually since with compositions of cupronickel, gold, and silver. These coins have been denominated in 5, 10, 25, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 1957, 2000, 5000, 10,000, 25,000, 50,000, and 100,000 dram.
