KDuesing Posted March 16, 2018 Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 Floridian you got it wrong man, he said 1 dinar was worth 7.3 grams of gold, today that would mean 307.81 gold has just gone way up today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could settle for $3.07 Thanks Floridian.... I like where your heads at with this article and the gold conversion!

Rmc10 Posted March 16, 2018 Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 Ya if they weren't planning on RVing their currency they wouldn't even bring it up because it would just anger the citizens that their money is still worthless. Just my opinion. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floridian Posted March 16, 2018 Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) 5 hours ago, Butifldrm said: The Central Bank celebrates the first Iraqi currency 86 years ago BAGHDAD / Al-Ghad Press: The Central Bank of Iraq celebrated on Friday, the 86th anniversary of the issuance of the first national currency after the declaration of the establishment of the modern Iraqi state. The Central Bank said in a press statement, received by "Al-Ghad Press", that "today passes us the 86th anniversary of the issuance of the first Iraqi currency of the Iraqi state, the dinar, which was issued on 16/3/1932." He pointed out that "the dinar was taken as a basic unit of the Iraqi currency and worth a thousand fils, and was carrying the image of King Faisal I, heading to the left." "The purchasing power of the Iraqi dinar was 7.3 grams gold," he said. He pointed out that "the currency committee was the responsible party, and the dinar was signed by its members: the chairman of the committee, Helten Young, the representative of the Iraqi government Jafar al-Askari, Bertram Hornsby was appointed by the Bank of England, Viscount Ghoshin representing banks operating in Iraq, Representative of banks operating in Iraq. " https://www.alghadpress.com/news/Iraq-News/148195/AlghadPress The more I look at this, the more I'm finding surprising about these 3 news articles. Yup! They're trying to tell the people something. If that's not it, then they are trying to aggravate the hell out of the people. Why would the Central Bank tell the people what the dinar was worth 86 years ago, when everyone knows it's worthless today? "The Central Bank said in a press statement, received by "Al-Ghad Press", that "today passes us the 86th anniversary of the issuance of the first Iraqi currency of the Iraqi state, the dinar, which was issued on 16/3/1932."

Lucky Dragon Posted March 16, 2018 Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 I believe all countries will be going to a gold backed currency. Including the USD. So, In my mind this article is a reminder of how things were, and will be again. Or I could be all wrong. But there must be a deeper meaning to this than just a walk down memory lane 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
