The chart shows the value of 1 PLN in USD. It uses the available recorded observations, which may cover only part of a selected period. The historical timeline below is separate from the rate archive.
Statistics use available daily observations, not intraday highs or lows. The mean gives each recorded day equal weight. Missing days are not filled. This is historical context, not a forecast.
What does this rate mean for your amount?
Compare the same amount at the current reference quote and a historical observation. Fees and inflation are excluded. If there is no observation on the selected date, we use the preceding one, at most 4 days earlier, and show its date.
