--- Comment #1 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
It looks like Belarus underwent various currency reforms going from BYR to BYB
to BYN.

Do we have to adjust currency_symbol as well?  Should it be "Br "?

--- Comment #2 from Sergey <malabay at yandex dot ru> ---
In July 2016, a new ruble was introduced (ISO 4217 code BYN), at a rate of 1
BYN 
= 10,000 BYR. 

A Currency symbol is Br according Wikipedia
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belarusian_ruble)
