The som was reintroduced in May 1993 when Kyrgyzstan broke from the ruble zone, becoming one of the first former Soviet republics to establish an independent currency — a decision made in part because Russia's monetary policy was exporting inflation across the region at a damaging rate. By 2008, this denomination had been in continuous production for over a decade with only incremental changes to the planchet specification.
