talladegaman Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Can someone please answer the question about what it would mean if they decided to remove the "000's " from our dinar bills. Does this mean if you have a 25,000 dinar it would now only be worth 25 dinars upon trade-in? If so, we all would be hurting even if it revauled in between $3-$5. Does this mean if you had a million dinar now all you have is 1,000? Please tell me this isn't true because most sites are rumoring that they have shown the new money in iraq and it is missing the "000's". Also what does it mean when they refer to a "lop"? yes, i'm new at this but just tryin understand all the ideas and post that are out there. Regardless, happy rv, when it happens!!! 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Check out the LOP Forum Section to answer any questions that you may have on this subject.... http://dinarvets.com/forums/index.php?/forum/39-lop-talk/ Thanks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimctrane Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Yes that would be a lop theory but not possible in my opinion because Iraq does not qualify to do a lop with all oil gold available notice I said my opinion this is Iraq no 100% garonty on this at all but they will Have to have a working currency soon.

Depends on what they mean by removing the zeros.....normally that means a LOP and the situation you described would be accurate except you wouldnt be hurting if they revalued 2-3 dollars cause that would double or triple your original investment which is still a profit so you wouldnt be hurting......and FYI no one has seen the new money.....when the CBI announces they are releasing a new set of bills then its true....other then that NO ONE will see them until they are released and anyone telling you they have is full of crap..... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paj1985 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 To be fair iraq have never stated a lop, but said they remove zeroes instead.which could mean the removal of the big notes ie:25,000 10,000 and so on. But they better rv to get em coz i wont hand em over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldier Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 It basically means you break even minus the fee's you paid to the place you bought and sell back. Thats why most "Smart" wealthy people think this is a scam. They think hard working military families who have bought this will only lose money. If a LOP happens the only people who will make money are the traders. This is not a scam because you CAN trade it back. The only way a lop can happen is if they print a new currency.

I had often wondered how an event like this may play out. I began my own web search for information on this. IF they did do a LOP it would only hurt the Iraqi's and of course us as well. I do not see this happening as to reprint new currency and redistribute it would cost a fortune. Thus also setting Iraq back with respect to the UN, IMF and delaying their desire to enter the WTO.

Show me hard proof, if you can't then just be quiet I'm sorry you feel this way. I must have touched a nerve.

frankc Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 No one, no matter how emphatic they sound, knows what Iraq will do. A lop can raise the price of the currency but it doesn't raise anyone's net worth of any significance so it doesn't make sense that is the course they will take. Go to the lop forum and spend some time reading instead of asking this question of people who have already spent hours educating themselves. thx Where did you get that info from. That's just your speculation. Show me hard proof, if you can't then just be quiet 111 posts in just 16 days. You obviously need to post a lot less and read a lot more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsskelton Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 On the radio show that Adam was on earlier today, he spoke of the many security features of the dinar. The current currency is fairly new, very sophisticated, and most likely a bit expensive to produce. These factors along with absolutely no hard evidence that there are lower denoms in existance lead me to believe, no lop. Please friends, that is merely my opinion and based on no facts or intel, so please be kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger01 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Just to add onto that thought... I can't recall where I read it but I recall reading something that said it cost them about .06 per dinar to produce. Which seems about right considering the specialized paper, all of the color and the security features. Obviously its trading a lot lower right now, but I suspect it will rise well above that cost at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
