The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights was informed in the countryside of Deir Ezzor, that the “Islamic State” issued a “gold dinar” coin and it began to trade today in the countryside of Deir Ezzor, and the activists of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitored the “Islamic state” accepting the “Gold Dinar” only in selling oil for the merchants, the organization is selling “Gold Dinar” to the exchange shops for $190 per Dinar, the Dinar weighs about 4.5 grams, and in turn the exchange shops are selling it to the merchants for $190.5, the merchants were seen heavily interesting and buying the “Gold Dinar” for their oil trade, the organization prevented selling the oil to dealers in any currency except for the “golden dinar.”

The source suggested that the “Islamic state’s” issuance of the new currency, and restricting it to the oil trading business, and not to accept any other currency in buying or selling oil, is made by the organization to earn a quick financial profit, after targeting its funding sources and Economic backbone in several areas in Syria and due to its great shortage in resources and funding.
