This reminds me of a joke. Three people who owed a dead man went up to his coffin and said to that dead man. 1st man. I owe you 100 $ here is 50$ please write off the balance 2 man said I owe you 200 $ here is 150 $ please write off the balance. 3 man (A lawyer) said here is a cheque for the principal and interest upto date (Unsigned). Most probabily the 550000 worth are the face value not the market rate.

I am at nearly 1,000,000 dinar. That was the limit I set back when I first started reading about it and getting in on the frenzy. I stopped short of opening an over seas account allowing me to trade on the iraq exchange. If the dinar pegs, great, if it doesn't won't bother me one bit. I kind like the crisp bills and it looks cool wrapped up in bricks.

They do have coins expecially the older ones but I am not sure of new ones , there were some Kurdish coins minted in advance to their thinking of getting a Kurdistan but I guess they are considered fantasy at this point

The Kurdish coins are listed in Krause's Unusual World Coins.
Did anyone get the 25,000 Dinars dated AH1423 (2003) with Saddam Hussein on it? This note was printed by the Americans as a stopgap measure prior to the introduction of the new currency.
I have heard the term 'Swiss Dinar' used in reference to the currency used by the Kurds in northern Iraq.Has anyone seen these notes? They have never been listed in either Pick or Pick Specialised at all.

I really wish I knew if the so-called "Kurdistan coins" are really used by people there. They may be minted for some other purposes. They even have 2006 commemoratives:) http://www.joelscoins.com/new2.htm#kurd06
