This issue is really insignifigant in comparison to what most countries have to deal with as per counterfietting....as we know all countries have this delimna...some more than others...a while back Iraq put out a statement that counterfeitting was really very insignifigant...they stated in their news that there were only an estimated appx. 25,000 counterfeit dinar bills per billion dinars...and where the proper detection equipment was available and in place...like in banks..the risk was rarely an issue.......(we have heard that the outback areas or borders, etc....is where this counterfeitting trade usually takes place...and from further reports...the bulk of it..if not all of it...was "circulated" notes that were being used...not the new "uncirculated" notes...as these worn bills pass easier when bundled with a lot of other bills when making payment transactions...and it is harder to see the fine security details on a worn note versus a crisp clean new bill)...One currency trader said that the quality on the counterfeit bills that they have actually seen...were of such bad quality that you could spot it from standing many feet away...

IMO..I think that they keep throwing this counterfeit issue out there as per making the news....to keep speculation at bay so to speak...as IMO...the counterfiet issue as per this secure of a currency...and with this little of value...is not a currency problem...but now if the value ever rises signifigantly...I believe it will become a serious problem...not to mention when it becomes internationally recognized and traded....

I also believe that they are taking steps for when and if the value of the dinar rises substantially...by protecing their borders as we have seen...by all banks becoming more compliant on the international scene as we have seen also here recently....and hypothetically...they could be using these media blitzes to keep awareness levels up and people prepared to be able to handle these issues once a real rate is given to the dinar...so as to combat these issues more readily and easily...due to public awareness locally and abroad...as this would be an excellent strategy if you knew your currency would soon rise...but we will see...
