Nisse: Less worth than a Kuwaitian Dinar

Against better knowledge, I usually keep half an eye on the most common exchange rates and see the Swedish krona get hit, time and time again, despite all the commentators who repeat that it is undervalued.

But right now it goes the other way. On the Riksbank’s list of thirty ordinary currencies, everyone has become cheaper in the past month, except the Norwegian who has been quite still. See there a small brightening in the witchcocktail that is the world right now.

Otherwise the only safe item that the Swiss franc rises, regardless of everything else. It is worth more than the euro, since three years ago. While the Turkish lira, who cut six zeros twenty years ago and then ended up on a three -quarter dollar, today has shrunk to a thirtieth of it.

In the mid-00s, the Turkish liran was the world’s lowest valued currency, I read now. For a single Swedish crown, about two hundred thousand lire was received. For five thousand, they became a billionaire.

Instead, the weakest should be Lebanese pounds, which is required nine thousand to get up to a Swedish crown. It is still better than the Turkish liran in 2004. And after the German hyperinflation in the 1920s, twelve zeros were removed, so that a trillion old land became a new one.

An incomprehensible enough, Zimbabwe managed to surpass it with rye, before the country abandoned its dollar in 2009.

Dollars are the world’s most common currency. There are local dollars in Australia, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Bermuda, Brunei, Cayman Islands, the Cook Islands, Fiji, Guayana, Hong Kong, Jamaica, Canada, Kiribati, Liberia, Namibia, New Zealand, Salomon Islands, Trinam, Singapore, Suinam, Suinam, Suinam, Suinam, Söinama, Suinam, Söinam Except in the United States, then.

The word comes from dollars, as in Swedish riksdaler.

The pound is in comparison small, Somewhat dozen different, most small remnants of the British Empire. Francs, pesos, diners and rupees are also found in quite a few countries. As well as SEK, in five different Nordic territories plus the Czech Republic.

Three of the world’s four most expensive currencies are, incidentally, dinars, from Kuwait, Bahrain and Jordan. In third place, the rial from Oman penetrates. Ideal small currencies in the Middle East.

Then the pound comes in place five and six, from the UK and Gibraltar respectively. They are very close. But for a single Kuwaitian dinar, you can cough up more than two and a half British pounds, over thirty -two Swedish kronor – or just over 290,000 Lebanese pounds.
