jeepguy Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 thanks for the imput guys gals ,,,, notaguru, you say the 250 dinar will have just 250 worth as a coin , why would they not spend 250 dinar , turn around and sell them for more value ? would that not melt down and make a profit ?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Im saying that the 250 Dinar coin will be sold at or near 1,056,000 Dinar. The "250" isnt a true value at all, just a numerical value placed on the coin, similarly to how we make special edition gold coins in the states with values like $1, $10, or $50, but actually valued much higher. These gold dinar coins are just special commemorative edition coins...as collectables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Im interpreting the article correctly, it looks like these were meant for collectors. Only 5000 of the 100 Dinar coins, and 5000 of the 250 Dinar coins will be minted, keeping them as 'limited editions'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes...it has come down from its high point, but if you look back over the years, the market has dropped many times. Oil is getting to the value it was in late 2001...when ironically Dinar was at $3:1.

Laid Back Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) Folks I have been invested for 9 years now and DO NOT get excited about much (I am a lurker not much into speculation but I am head deep into Speculating today!) Let Me show you this...to Convert Grams to Ounces and back go to this site... http://www.statman.info/auto-mass/grams_to_ounces.html So if you take the above statement saying that they will sell 22 gram coins (they also stated 15 gram coins), converting 22 grams into ounces you get 22 Grams x 28.34952 =.776 ounces at the spot price as of now is $35.34 per gram / $1109.20 per ounce so... 22 x $35.34 = $777.48 per Coin Now did I miss read the above statement saying that this Coin would be sold for 250 Dinars? $777.48 / 250 Dinar = $3.10992 US Dollars Per Iraq Dinar ?????????????

notaguru Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) Im crunching the numbers, but so far having a tough time. 21K gold finished at $31.07/gram or $966.52/troy oz. (Different conversion rate with troy ounces) Im missing a bit of info... The article says "weight", but not sure what unit of measure theyre using. One troy ounce of 21K gold in Dinar is roughly 1,130,805 IQD One gram of 21K gold is 36,352 IQD WHERE THIS '171,700 by weight' number comes in, is beyond me presently.... I'll keep digging. Also..."weight of gold is 5 per gram" ...whaaa? Edited January 9, 2016 by notaguru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notaguru Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) Ok, so this is what I got.... 21K gold actually averaged out today at 34,500 Dinar per gram. Not sure why....but if one multiplies that by 5, you get roughly this 171,766 they're talking about. This 5 multiplier might be what is being referred to in the statement "weight of gold is equal to 5 per gram". I tweaked the translation at the end in google translate enough to know, this isnt the best translation of the article, so that in itself could explain the jibberish like statements. As far as the 171,766 & 171,198 values, its just the difference in value between yesterday and today. This is just what I make of it.
