Iraq Banknotes Catalog
The history of banknotes in Iraq is a fascinating journey through the country's economic and political evolution. From their first issues to the present day, Iraqi banknotes have reflected the changes and challenges faced by the nation.
Current banknotes in circulation
The Iraqi dinar has been the official currency of Iraq since 1932. Currently, banknotes in circulation include denominations of 250, 500, 1000, 5000, 10000, 25000 and 50000 dinars. These banknotes feature modern designs with cultural and historical motifs, such as the Tower of Babel on the 10000 dinar bill and King Hammurabi on the 25000 dinar note.
Old banknotes and historical events
Iraq' s old banknotes bear witness to its turbulent history. During Saddam Hussein's regime, banknotes bore his portrait, but were replaced after his fall in 2003. An important milestone was the hyperinflation of the 1990s, which led to the issuance of high-denomination banknotes. In addition, the economic blockade imposed after the Gulf War in 1991 resulted in the printing of low-quality banknotes known as "Saddam dinars," which were later replaced by a new series in 2003.
