jb4388 Posted February 17, 2019 Report Share Posted February 17, 2019 At a 1:1 an exchange could happen almost anytime. Let that run a little while then up the rate to 1: $1:20 over a long weekend and the banks (who held those early dinars ( perhaps in America)) would come away nicely. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
