Interesting,

More than a few conversion sites have changed dinar rate, check it out. 25K dinar converts to $37337.K Sure would be nice, but we shall see. $1.49, but seems too high to me to be true.

Hi Mike!
I didn't see your post here earlier- and I posted a similar message in the Rumor section and included a shot of some Forex page my buddy Jim sent to me. I will post more if I find anything out, but for now I think I'll stay in the rumor section until we are quite sure this is for real. It probably is real, but it may take a few hours to really verify the fact.
$1.49...........WOW!
Remember when we were excited about your speculation, thinking it might go to 30 cents, equal to what the Kurds had before the invasion? Ahhh the good 'ol days!
Blessings On YOU! AL

Interesting,

Yes, it sounded too good to be true, but it actually was on a half dozen conversion sites, so you have to wonder how this could happen? And at this $1.49 rate, sure makes you scratch your head as to where it came from that so many picked up on change. Could it be in the works, or just a system glitch, I don't think anyone knows, but there sure has been a lot of action with China looking to barter out what is owed by Iraq for oil deals, election law settled for now, so what is left, oil law, so we shall see.

Success to all, Mike
