10 Most Expensive Currencies in The World in 2017

2. Bahraini Dinar (BHD)

1 BHD = 2.65 USD

Bahraini Dinar ranks 2nd in our list of the most expensive currencies in the world in 2017. Originally, before the advent of the Bahraini dinar, the Gulf rupee was used in Bahrain before it was abandoned in 1965. The dinar of Bahrain is fractionated into “fils”, a thousand of which make up one dinar. The highest value bill is of twenty dinars and, like the ten dinar note, it boasts an image of the incumbent king of Bahrain, Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa. The rest of the notes display various buildings of some significance such as the old Bahrain Court. The Bahrain keeps its value because, like the previous two currencies we have discussed, it has a fixed exchange rate with the United States dollar.
