weird money question

[TonyMastodon]

Does anyone know where i can convert foreign currency??
I look online and all i can find is a website that shows me what its worth, but not where i can turn it in.

some banks, international airport, wells fargo...some countries are more common than others

Usually your bank will exchange paper money. But no coins. And it needs to be from a common country as well. At least my bank does.

Hmmmm, ill check.. I have abotu 15,000 dollars (USD) worth of Afghanis (afghani) money sitting next to me. wondering how i can move this stuff.

 

[zukracer]

unless you can prove how you got that much of it... you might wanna arrange a trip to london to convert it all ... just sayin, the tax man is a beotch

oh yeah, check XE - The World's Favorite Currency and Foreign Exchange Site prior to going to ensure you arent getting boned by the conversion rate

Yeah... I bought a $25,000 dinar note a few years ago... It was supposed to go 2/1 or even higher in a year from when I bought it... I'm still waiting...

 

[yamahor]

HA! I spent $88 bucks buying that 25,000 Dinar! It's worth $21.6732.

Hey Ben, dont feel bad... here is something that will make you feel better even if it is not true..

****** WHY INVEST IN IRAQ?
​

Presidential Order #13303 has now made it legal for U.S. citizens to invest in Iraq, check it out here:
Iraqi Stock Market Press Release
“Bankers at the Bank of Nazariah, World Bank, are projecting the Dinar value to soon be .43 cents US per Dinar.” This would make todays $40.00 – 25,000 IQD bill worth $10,750 USD!

Hopefully, it does come back in circulation!

 

[UncleSteve]

put it on ebay, a bill at a time, worth more as souvenir, (if you can legally sell it)

 

[MET]

No but you will get whacked on the charges. Best bet is if you know individuals that are going back to Afghanistan, do your own exchange.

Email a Nigerian and tell him you want to exchange it and will give twice what it is worth, have him send you the American dollars......... you get the picture.

Doesn't Iraq do "mail order"~?~

 

[NickSully]

If the money is not in circulation any more check with collectors. People collect that kind of thing all the time.
