The UAE (which Abu Dhabi is a part of) have their own currency, one that is pegged to the US dollar though. Currency conversions can be done at many currency converter websites, by the way. Try this one http://www.xe.com for example. Christian
That's the fake one. The others combined retail for less than $2000. I'm not sure who's more stupid - the sellers or the authorities.
Or the newspaper fact checkers nowadays. I knew it sounded horribly high, but I knew a FEW Islamic coins are tremendous rarities, so didn't want to show my ignorance by questioning the values.
I show 2.5M Dhinars as equal to $147K US. I don't have enough knowledge of these coins but unless there is an unusually rare date or type in that group I think the value is probably exaggerated.
I do. I once gave a student a zero on an entire examination because they multiplied something by two digits by two digits and came up with an answer with 6 digits. They complained to the dean. The dean pulled me into his office and asked me to explain my behavior. I told him that a would be pharmacist who multiplies something 2 digits by 2 digits and comes up with 6 digits shouldn't even be allowed to graduate the program ... ever. I'd had given him more points if he desperately looked over his shoulder and copied the answer from his neighbor. Needless to say, the zero grade stayed. Ruben
