Sheila   @Raul - about your question -- Zim? let's discuss

sandyf  BobbyC Now you may say it wasn’t a new currency in 2003 but in fact it was new because those new denominations weren’t around during Sadam’s days. Sounds new to me. It’s been the Iraqi Dinar since 1930 (?) and has gone thru major changes and to this day remains the Iraqi Dinar - You are obviously free to believe what you want. The Iraqi Dinar is the monetary unit of Iraq, not the currency. The currency of Iraq is the IQD, and a currency can be issued in different series. The monetary unit of Turkey is the Lira, in 2006 they changed the currency from TRL to TRY, the monetary unit remained the Lira.

BobbyC sandyf Appreciate that and you're right, we can agree to disagree because it really doesn't matter in the long run as far as what people are looking for in this investment. What we do know is that the Sadam era, and prior to, had a currency called the IQD. When the Sadam IQD was "cancelled", they printed a new currency, completely different than the Sadam IQD, and called it the......IQD. Now if they re denominate and go international will they rename the IQD as you pointed out with the Turkish Lira, could be but then and again, who will care because it becomes a neutral event for us and we battle the spread, not the dealers. Of course that's dependent upon which banks will handle it
