        Use it to map a date to the correct code before requesting a rate.


        This endpoint takes no parameters, and always includes obsolete currencies - unlike /v1/currencies, it needs no obsolete parameter.


        Also available as XML and CSV by appending .xml or .csv to the path.


        A peg exists to keep a long series continuous across a currency transition. Values derived from one are arithmetic, not observed market rates.'
