This move by cbi baffles me as well. But it is movement towards changing the banknotes . Iraq is gearing towards joining first world countries who have value to their currency , the euro ,pound ,dollar , canadian dollar , peso , in fact all countries who have access to ATMs .This requires smaller denoms ,100's ,50's and 20's . Security features will go down as the notes go down to lesser denominations . No one ,and I mean no one , can reproduce the security features of the higher notes . It would be absurd to counterfeit these notes as it is easier ,much cheaper , and legal to buy the real notes . Take a look at your 25000k notes under a black light. You will be amazed . The one smart thing that the US did was to pay DeLaRue to produce these notes, which are uncounterfeitable . For those who detect a strange odor from the 25000k's , it's the real oxblood they used for the red. Keep the faith ,dudes . We're coming in like a herd of turtles, but we're coming in !

Clearly, 25k and 10k are not currency for small groups.

These could be an error in reporting. At least I hope so.

Alsumaria News / Baghdad
The name of the governor of the bank on the new currency coins raised many questions and surprise about the meaning behind it. 

At the time considered by some officials as a step not returned by Iraq and in violation of the law of the Central Bank demanded an economist to counter the currency and prevent circulation.

Khaddar added that "putting the name of the governor of the Central Bank on the monetary currency is something we did not have previously," adding that "in case there was a violation of the laws in force will work on the Committee to develop treatments for this matter and presented to the House of Representatives to take the necessary measures and legislation." 

For his part, called for a coalition of state law, Abdul Salam al-Maliki, the presidency of the House of Representatives to "drawer this subject on the agenda of the next Council for discussion and hosting the Governor of the Central Bank to know the motives behind this measure," stressing that "the official currency and within the law of the Central Bank in force does not give to the Governor The right to put his name, but only put the word governor and under the signature.

On the other hand, a member of the legal representative MP Sheikh Ali Sheikh Ali told the House of Representatives "to issue a resolution to prevent trading and deal with the Iraqi currency printed recently containing the name of the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, rather than just sign only." 

The economic expert Louay Khatib stressed in a blog post on the social networking site Facebook to withdraw and destroy this new version of the currency and correct this mistake, "calling for" to be the signature of the Iraqi currency by the Minister of Finance by title without mentioning the name. "

"The dollar, for example, is signed with the Treasury Secretary and Treasurer's address without mentioning the names, as is the case for the Sterling Sterling signed by the Chief Cashier with the title without mentioning the name." He called on all Iraqi people to "participate in this corrective action to be Beginning of the reform process in all aspects of government work and its contexts. " 

On Sunday, the Central Bank issued its second edition of banknotes for the categories (25,000, 10,000, 1,000, 500 and 250) dinars. He pointed out that the new currency included the writing of the name of the governor instead of signing it in the old version, in line with what is now practiced in Other countries, as amended dates AH and Gregorian dates (1440 H-2018).

He added that "legally, the law did not address the mention of the name of the governor and if the law wanted to mention the name of the governor to mention in a legal text, and here the law spoke about a governor and not a name." 

The economic expert Abdul Rahman al-Mashhadani said in a statement to "Al-Ghad Press" that "the process does not need this uproar, there are economic problems surrounding the country and can not be the name of the governor is a fundamental problem, especially as the central bank has a special law and independence in full in making the appropriate decisions." 

He pointed out that "the Council of Ministers and the Economic Commission has given this authority to the Governor of the Central Bank," pointing out that "some Arab countries have in their currency the name of the governor."

The Central Bank of Iraq has announced on Sunday, the second edition of the banknotes of the categories (25000, 10000, 1000, 500, 250) dinars, stressing that he will continue trading circulation of cash currently traded from the above categories with the new categories without any intention to withdraw from circulation .

The dinar was introduced into circulation in 1932, by replacing the Indian rupee, which had been the official currency since the British occupation of the country in World War I, at a rate of 1 dinar = 11 rupees. The dinar was pegged at par with the British pound until 1959 when, without changing its value, the peg was switched to the United States dollar at the rate of 1 dinar = 2.8 dollars. By not following the devaluations of the US currency in 1971 and 1973, the dinar rose to a value of US$3.3778,

 

i dont know if the 1932 and 1964 are a hint in the previous article I just thought it interesting that I really like any rate for the dinar between 1932 and 1973 :)

Well it appears the Government of Iraq is not too happy About Alak Issuing new notes without the government's permission!  In the constitution it is the reponsiblity of the Federal Government to approve on currency issuance.  In 2012 Shabibi went to the government for their approval and later that year he had an arrest warrant issued while he was out of the country.  Alak may have a battle on his hands.

I thought the main goal of the CBI was to control inflation and reduce the note count

in the local market from 4 billion notes to 1 billion notes.

 

Now the CBI has a plan to release more 000 notes to the market 25k, 10k, 5k, 1k, 500

notes.... why?.... This will increase the note count......The CBI is worried in how to collect 30 trillion in chunky cash stashed under the mattress, and now they are planning to release more 000 notes... it doesn’t sound logical to me.

 

Can somebody give me a logical explanation about the new 000 they want to

release to the market?

 

The 000 notes (2003 edition) we hold already have the latest security features.

 

I remember somebody told me that we will see a lot of misinformation when

we are closer to an increase of the dinar exchange rate.

 

just my humble opinion

Hey LB I'll take a stab at this and how I see it.  And this is just my humble opinion only.  If the CBI is the same as the federal reserve in the US then there is your hook.  The federal reserve can change the characteristics of the notes at any time as we have seen quite often over the last 20 or so years.  All in the name of preventing counterfeiting with several new security features.  Yes the dinar we hold have a lot of the latest security features however there is still counterfeiting run amuk.  So the release of the new dinars is not to me a big deal.  If they are doing it for the right reasons.  What are those?  This is Iraq so who knows.  But hopefully its to prevent any further counterfeiting.  A 1964 $100 bill still has the same value as a 2018 $100 bill but the looks are completely different.  So if that is the case then I do not think that any of the dinars we hold would ever lose any value.  But again this is Iraq so who knows.

 

Now to take this a step further.  The US at one time had $1000 bills a long time ago in a galaxy far far away.  Do those bill still hold the same value?  Absolutely.  But they are not used by any layman today, but by major banks.  However with the digital age those bills are probably not used as they once were but held in bank safes.  Now with the amount of dinar held by anyone outside of Iraq would any value actually be lost?  I don't think so.  Once saddam fell and the GOI made a decision that a new currency was needed so they printed the new dinar we hold.  Why?  Because it was out with the old Iraq and in with the new Iraq.  So just because they print new currency they would have to call in each and every dinar from all over the world.  I don't see that happening either.

 

As to Alak putting is name on the new dinar.  Who instructed Iraq on forming a new country so to speak?  The US of course.  Now back to the Federal Reserve.  Each and every denomination of US paper currency has the Secretary of the Treasury's signature on it.  So isn't the Governor of the CBI the same as the Secretary of the Treasury??  So I'm not sure what all the hubbub is with regard to Alak putting is signature on the new currency.  If it is a new added security feature great the more power to them.  I don't know just guessing here.

 

Anyways that's my :twocents: which used to be 2 copper coins now I don't know what they are made of.  :jester:

Since 2003  there has been a conflict in Policy between the GOI and the CBI as far as who is in charge of issuing currency.  After Shabibi was removed in came Turki.  The government at that time had nothing to say about Turki signing new notes.  IMHO,  Alak could be in  the process of being removed.  They may be gunning for him.

Hey LB I'll take a stab at this and how I see it.  And this is just my humble opinion only.  If the CBI is the same as the federal reserve in the US then there is your hook.  The federal reserve can change the characteristics of the notes at any time as we have seen quite often over the last 20 or so years.  All in the name of preventing counterfeiting with several new security features.  Yes the dinar we hold have a lot of the latest security features however there is still counterfeiting run amuk.  So the release of the new dinars is not to me a big deal.  If they are doing it for the right reasons.  What are those?  This is Iraq so who knows.  But hopefully its to prevent any further counterfeiting.  A 1964 $100 bill still has the same value as a 2018 $100 bill but the looks are completely different.  So if that is the case then I do not think that any of the dinars we hold would ever lose any value.  But again this is Iraq so who knows.

 

Now to take this a step further.  The US at one time had $1000 bills a long time ago in a galaxy far far away.  Do those bill still hold the same value?  Absolutely.  But they are not used by any layman today, but by major banks.  However with the digital age those bills are probably not used as they once were but held in bank safes.  Now with the amount of dinar held by anyone outside of Iraq would any value actually be lost?  I don't think so.  Once saddam fell and the GOI made a decision that a new currency was needed so they printed the new dinar we hold.  Why?  Because it was out with the old Iraq and in with the new Iraq.  So just because they print new currency they would have to call in each and every dinar from all over the world.  I don't see that happening either.

 

As to Alak putting is name on the new dinar.  Who instructed Iraq on forming a new country so to speak?  The US of course.  Now back to the Federal Reserve.  Each and every denomination of US paper currency has the Secretary of the Treasury's signature on it.  So isn't the Governor of the CBI the same as the Secretary of the Treasury??  So I'm not sure what all the hubbub is with regard to Alak putting is signature on the new currency.  If it is a new added security feature great the more power to them.  I don't know just guessing here.

 

Anyways that's my :twocents: which used to be 2 copper coins now I don't know what they are made of.  :jester:

"

"Under the regulations, the CBI has the right to determine the categories of paper and metal currencies, their measures, their forms, their material, their content, their weight, their design and other features."

He pointed out that "the banknotes in various countries contain the signature of the Issuing Authority, which is the Governor of the Central Bank. Central banks have always put signatures of their governors on these securities in different forms." Among them are the signature of the Governor, In the handwriting of the governor in the form of the name combination with a signature with special significance to the banknotes. Many central banks use this combination (name of the governor by hand) without signing to document the stage of issuance of the banknote.

He continued, "Of these examples Iraqi currency issued in 1932 as signed by the same formula Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq in 1964 and followed the approach of the central banks of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Lebanon, Turkey and others, so the Central Bank of Iraq decided to include the name of the governor when reprinting or issuing any cash , In line with what was stated and with the latest trends found in the signature alone, the lack of significance required by the word (governor) on the banknote and that the currency committee in the Central Bank of Iraq concerned has taken this decision for months in accordance with all legal considerations and Organizational and international practices ".
