Info says coins will be released on April 30th. It's May 8th. 2001:1388:19:CC11:BD4A:9A22:32FD:303A (talk) 20:14, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Coins.

Coins for Quarter and Half ZiG are going to be released, according to [1]https://english.news.cn/20240406/da49ae38d2144842b29d7db49d9f18b2/c.html .

It will remain to be seen if this turns out to be the case. - (161.29.22.65 (talk) 09:08, 6 April 2024 (UTC))[reply]

Proposed merge of GBDT (digital token) into Zimbabwe Gold

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

To not merge, as the topics are distinct and distinctly notable. Klbrain (talk) 18:41, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not enough material to justify separate page Broc (talk) 14:03, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

●Oppose~~ZiG currency and ZiG token(GDBT) are different and can't be merged as, one is a currency and the other is a investment instrument. GOLD$$$ (talk) 08:20, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. They are different things, although the "digital token" was named ZiG until the currency unit was invented with the same name. Also, as things in that country seem to change quite quickly, I wonder if the name ZiG will become the standard name for the currency unit and the origin "Zimbabwe Gold" gets forgotten. In other words, "ZiG" will be the betteer title for this article, or even "Zimbabwean ZiG" to be consistent with most/all other national currency articles.

ISO 4217

My apprehension is that there is not, currently, an ISO 4217 code for this currency. It is thus not correct to list the code as ZiG (ZI is not assigned to Zimbabwe, and ZW is, and no letter has been given to the ZiG currency), but as "Not assigned" until reliable information on the ZiG's code is made available. Ellenor2000 (talk) 21:51, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Update: it appears that indeed there is no 4217 listed. I was misreading the infobox. Ellenor2000 (talk) 21:52, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ISO4217 amendment 177 allocates ZWG, effective 25th June 2024. ^[1] Pdwxbrl (talk) 12:31, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ZiG should redirect to this article. 2601:5C5:4201:68B0:B17C:1145:B767:8AC6 (talk) 20:00, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, the article doesnt feel substantial enough to be its own page, and works perfectly as a section in the article to be merged into Dune-Dawg123 (talk) 10:58, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Which company is printing them?

Would be an interesting info, see Giesecke's continuing involvement in one hyperinflation after the other. 2A01:C23:6193:9900:C1B:36C5:508:2EF6 (talk) 13:11, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As of April 2024, the value of the dollar had decreased by 80%.

This line As of April 2024, the value of the dollar had decreased by 80%. occurs without context in the /*Background*/ section. It does not state which dollar is being talked about, or over what time period this decrease occurred. I assume that it is the ZimDollar, but that lost over 99.9% of its value from the date of issuance (2019). Between 1944 and April 2021 the US dollar had lost approximately 93% of its value (as measured by consumer purchasing power). By that same measure, between February 1978 and September 2024 the US dollar has lost approximately 80% of its value. Without context the statement in the article is meaningless. I propose removing it, unless context is provided. --Bejnar (talk) 12:02, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
