Currencies to update #11

What are your criteria for inclusion of a currency? I see just the latest Zimbabwean dollar but both Zambian kwachas (the ZMK being deprecated in 2013). Personally, I wouldn't include historical currencies as their usage would be marginal.

I am subscribed to some email list for changes to some international standard of currencies. So I have mostly been reacting to official changes I hear about there.

That is a good point about removing historical currencies. I am not sure what to do. I can imagine that a currency could be deprecated and people might still use it. Maybe they have existing data in an old currency, or maybe they are supporting both currencies during a transition period, or maybe they just still use the old currency despite whatever the official changes are.

I don't really know what happens in practice, these are just hypothetically possible in my mind.
