What about the Iraqi dinar?Submitted by savcash on Sat, 03/12/2011 - 19:06.
They have elected a government, passed a budget, and have started pumping oil again (feb 3rd) See this as well >>copy>>
Iraq has a new currency to replace Iraq ’s two currencies, one of which was easily counterfeited and mostly circulated in a single denomination. Banks issue only the new currency and government employees paid in cash will receive their salaries in the new currency. Until January 15, 2004 the old and new currencies will circulate freely at a fixed exchange rate. Exchange between the old and new currencies is conducted at now charge at multiple exchange points around the country. The other financial market structures are strong: 95 percent of all pre-war bank customers have service and first-time customers are opening accounts daily. Iraqi banks are making loans to finance businesses. The central bank is fully independent. Iraq has one of the world’s most growth-oriented investment and banking laws. The new Iraqi dinar which is printed bu De La Rue company in the US and Great Britian, is valued at just 2 tenths of one cent today. The US treasury has a strong dinar policy and is working with the CPA (Coalition Provisional Authority) to reinstate a strong decentralized banking system in Iraq . By December 2004 there will be six Western Banks in Iraq and six Iraqi Banks outside Iraq in operation. In March Three banks were given licence to operate in Iraq, National Bank ofKuwait, HSBC Bank and Charter bank of England . [//] If you go to the IMF site, you will see their GNP is over 11% while USA is 2 something. They just requested to belong to the UN, and they need a valuable currency to do this. Therefore, the dinar needs to REVALUE and to that end, is considered a great investment for thousands. Another great site to check out is http://www.midnightthinktank.com however, if you wish to buy you can also do so at many banks, 5th 3rd and huntington -best hurry it is said to be happening soon now. Good Luck Betty The choices we make, not the chances we take,determine our destiny.

The dinar is an investment, like all investments one should use common sense. Do your homework. $100.00 at fifth third bank, will buy you $100,000.00 (with a slight 16?? handling fee) one thousand will buy you one million dinar (give or take alittle) and sooner or later..........?????

Such a system would go a long way towards reducing the scope for speculative capital flows that generate volatility in the international financial system and distort the pattern of trade.
