For what it is worth, there are six countries in GCC: Kuwait, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman and the U.A.E. The first four participate in a 'Monetary union', the last two (Oman and UAE) have opted out of the monetary union. The rough average value of the four countries currencies is $1.85, with Kuwait being $3.85, Bahrain $2.95, and SA and Qatar currencies both valued at $0.30. I got the currencie values from BOA and the rest of the info from Wikepedia, though the info should be taken with a large grain of salt. Not all the information there is as reliable as news from Iraq! Go RV!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperation_Council_for_the_Arab_States_of_the_Gulf
