Kurdistan 2006

Kurdistan new coins:



Where to get them: Joel Anderson
Kurdistan LINK: Kurdistan Regional Government

I asked the Kurdistan Regional Government if these are legal tender coins and this is their answer:

"Currently, the Kurdistan Regional Government does not have an offically recognized coin collection. The currency used in our region is the same all over Iraq. I hope this answers your question."

So, officially, this is NOT a legal tender set.

    Are you sure these are legal tender coins?

    I read in Joel's site that these coins were minted by the Kurdish exile government. However, I sent several messages to Kurdistan official sites asking about it but got no answer. As I consider them very attractive coins, I decided to post this note anyway.
