Pathet Lao kip
The Pathet Lao kip was introduced some time before 1976 in the areas which were under the control of the Pathet Lao.
Banknote denominations of 1, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 kip were issued. The notes were printed in China.
In 1976, the Pathet Lao kip replaced the Royal kip throughout Laos following the Pathet Lao's take over of the country.
The exchange rate between the two kip was 1 Pathet Lao kip = 20 royal kip.
