About Mauritanian ouguiya
The ouguiya, at one time spelled "ougiya", is the currency of Mauritania. Each ouguiya constitutes five khoums.
The current ouguiya was introduced in 2018, replacing the old ouguiya at a rate of 1 new ouguiya = 10 old ouguiya, which in turn replaced the CFA franc at a rate of 1 old ouguiya = 5 francs.
The name ouguiya is the Hassaniya Arabic pronunciation of uqiyyah أُوقِية, meaning "ounce". Wikipedia
