milo825 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 This is my first reply to a post and it is probably a question that has been answered several times. If the new dinar is 1/1000 then does that mean that 1,000,000.00 is now 1,000.00? And since I assume the change in the dinar will occur during the rv if the dinar/usd amount goes up and we now have 1/1000 of what we had; should we then expect what was supposed to be 1.4 to 3.5 million to now at best get 1400.00 to 3500.00 although it is a gain its not quite the gain I was literally banking on. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millionday Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Milo825-- It would only mean that if you were in Iraq and planned to exchange for Dinars-- The exchange rate that will interest us is the exchange of IQD to Dollars-- Which will apply to the face value you now hold-- hope this helps- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it redenominates then yes.....your million dinar is now only a thousand and there isent much gain..........but if they take the zeros off the bills or take them out of circulation, they will have to change the exchange rate as well.....and with it being said that BOTH currencies will exist at the same time, they both will have to have the same value or exchange rate.....you cant have two diffferent bills with two different rates.....so as of now we cant do anything but wait and see what they have in store....no use in worrying over anything.....you already have your dinar so just sit back and watch this unfold..... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rellum Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 keepmwlknfny now that was well said . just like the casino. it the bells ring after a pull u win big ha ha just my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milo825 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 keepmwlknfny now that was well said . just like the casino. it the bells ring after a pull u win big ha ha just my 2 cents Agreed I need a little more than that....I doubt any of us would be here reading and reseaching if we were just letting it unfold. I know there can't be two rates for one form of currency but as stated above the 25,000.00 dinar bill is now worth 25.00 they are both iqd so both will be worth so much on the dollar but to where as one is worth XX,000.00 it is now XX.00. I think its worth a little research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatbob Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Zantac, would your connection over there be able to shed some light on this matter. I would think he would have mentioned it to you at some point. Not bashing, just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traconesu02 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Please keep in mind as always - as this gets closer and closer to RV'ing you are going to hear many stories which will no doubt make you wish you could sell your dinar. I believe this is their way to help assure no further dinar sales prior to the RV. JMHO Thanks for the post pourit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OILandDINAR Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 A client of mine owns a company that specializes in accurate translation. I have forwarded him the link to the video to be translated. I can't tell you if it will come back as a transcript of the whole video or a summary similar to this one. I'll post it when I get it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarineDad Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 I'm interested if you receive a second translation. Please keep us posted. Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
