The króna (plural krónur) is the name of the currency used in Iceland. The name, meaning "crown", is related to that of other Nordic currencies (such as the Swedish krona and Norwegian krone). The ISO currency code is ISK. The Icelandic króna separated from the Danish krone after the dissolution of the Scandinavian Monetary Union at the start of World War I and Icelandic autonomy from Denmark in 1918,with full independence in 1944. Since 1961, circulation of the Icelandic króna has been controlled by Seðlabanki Íslands, the Central Bank of Iceland. In 1981, the Icelandic króna was revalued, with 100 old krónur being worth 1 new króna.
