yeah, this really has no informational value unless we know what the supply is, or in the case of national currencies, what their purchase value is in the national economy. Otherwise this is just a convention. When a country that went through hyperinflation a few years back cuts six 0's from their currency, this changes absolutely nothing in its actual value, it just saves them some ink on printing bills.

Before joining eurozone, 1 Latvian lat (LVL) was worth 1.59 USD. But initially it was even ~2 USD.

I totally agree with you, there are currencies and economies that have strengthened their value and others like the United States that have caused the dollar to lose its hegemony.

Don't think I follow, what do you mean "highest-valued"?
reply
Highest value depends on its exchange rate against other currencies. Like 1 KWD valued about 3.2 USD which is highest value globally.

You realize those numbers are completely meaningless, right?
Nominal vs real, that shit doesn't matter
