History of Iraqi Dinar

1932
Currency unit consisting of 1,000 fils or 20 dirhams. When officially introduced at the end of the British mandate (1932), the Iraqi dinar was equal to, and was linked to, the British pound sterling, which at that time was equal to US $4.86.
1932–1949
1949–1971
Iraqi dinar (ID) equaled US $4.86 between 1932 and 1949 and after devaluation in 1949, equaled US $2.80 between 1949 and 1971.
1959–1967
Iraq officially uncoupled the Iraqi Dinar from the pound sterling as a gesture of independence in 1959, but the Iraqi dinar remained at parity with the pound until the British unit of currency was again devalued in 1967.
1971
One Iraqi dinar remained equal to US $2.80 until December 1971, when major realignments of world currencies began.
1973
Upon the devaluation of the United States dollar in 1973, the Iraqi Dinar appreciated to US $3.39. 1980
It remained at this level until the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq War in 1980.
1982
In 1982 Iraq devalued the dinar by 5 percent, to a value equal to US $3.22, and sustained this official exchange rate without additional devaluation despite mounting debt.
1988
In early 1988, the official dinar-dollar exchange rate was still Iraqi dinar (ID)1 to US $3.22; however, with estimates of the nation’s inflation rate ranging from 25 percent to 50 percent per year in 1985 and 1986, the dinar’s real transaction value, or black market exchange rate, was far lower-only about half the 1986 official rate.
