[[Iran]] decimalised its currency in 1932, with the [[Iranian rial|rial]], subdivided into 100 new dinars, replacing the [[Iranian qiran|qiran]] at par.

[[Saudi Arabia]] decimalised the [[Saudi riyal|riyal]] in 1963, with 1 riyal = 100 halalas. Between 1960 and 1963, the riyal was worth 20 [[kuruş|qirsh]], and before that, it was worth 22 qirsh.

The [[Yemen Arab Republic]] introduced the coinage system of 1 [[North Yemeni rial]] = 100 [[fils (currency)|fils]] in 1974, to replace the 1 rial = 40 buqsha = 80 halala = 160 zalat system. The country was one of the last to convert its coinage.

[[Japan]] historically had two decimal subdivisions of the yen: the sen (1/100) and the rin (1/1,000). However, they were taken out of circulation as of December 31, 1953, and all transactions are now conducted in multiples of 1 yen.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://law.e-gov.go.jp/htmldata/S62/S62HO042.html|title=通貨の単位及び貨幣の発行等に関する法律|work=e-gov.go.jp|access-date=2014-05-26|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130208174436/http://law.e-gov.go.jp/htmldata/S62/S62HO042.html|archive-date=2013-02-08|url-status=dead}}</ref>

==== Rupee-anna-pice-pie to Rupee-paisa conversion ====

[[India]] changed from the [[rupee]], [[Anna (coin)|anna]], [[Pie (Indian coin)|pie]] system to decimal currency on 1 April 1957. [[Pakistan]] decimalised [[Pakistani rupee|its currency]] in 1961.

In India, Pakistan, and other places under British colonization where a system of 1 rupee = 16 [[Indian anna|anna]] = 64 pice (old paisa) = 192 pie was used, the decimalisation process defines 1 rupee = 100 naya (new) paisa. The following table shows the conversion of common denominations of coins issued in modern India and Pakistan. 

*'''Bold''' denotes the actual denomination written on the coins
