Currency Status
A currency may be in current use or of historic interest only. It may or may not be legal tender. And it may mostly be used as a financial instrument. To help return the most useful currencies the currency status code acts as follows:
:all
, the default, returns all currencies:current
returns those currencies that have a:to
date of nil and which also is a known ISO4217 currency:historic
is the opposite of:current
:tender
is a currency that is legal tender:unannotated
is a currency that doesn't have "(some string)" in its name. These are usually financial instruments.
