Iraqi Dinar Value – Different Prices For Different Values

Why is there is a price difference for different denominations of Iraqi Dinars? The reason is online rate of the currency is based on the auction rate or the market rate fixed by the Central Bank of Iraq. The rate at which the Central Bank of Iraq sells the Dinar to legitimate and large financial institutions is known as the auction rate. The market rate on the other hand is fixed by the currency vendors in the streets of Iraq. The price charged by the street currency vendors. However, both these rates cannot reflect the value or the worth of the Iraq Dinar because these are the internal exchange rates and not the exchange values.

Another important point is that Iraqi Dinar flows through the currency exchange markets of the neighboring countries before being purchased by investors the United States. The Dinars purchased from the legitimate sources is affected by the supply and demand of the in the Iraq economy.

So what is the Iraqi Dinar really worth? Is there a set exchange rate? Right now, there is not a universal exchange rate for the Dinar, so the currency is technically worth whatever a buyer is willing to pay for it. The reason is there is no set exchange rate for this currency because it is not freely traded in the world financial market. Prior to the United Nations embargo, the value of one Dinar was $3.20. However, by mid-2003, one US Dollar was equivalent to 1,500 IQD. However, the good news for those who are hoarding Iraqi Dinars is that since there is a steady increase in the economic growth, the value of new Dinar has gone up by 45%. Hence, if everything goes well, the financial analysts predict the worth of Iraqi currency will rebound to more than it is currently worth.
