AI overview
I appreciate your request, but the context provided is too minimal to write an accurate, informative overview. "Currency" alone doesn't give me specific details about the Jordanian dinar—such as its exchange rate, economic role, history, or current significance—that would be needed to create a meaningful 2-sentence explanation for a general reader while staying true to your instruction to base it only on provided context. Could you provide more detailed context about the Jordanian dinar?

The Jordanian dinar (Arabic: دينار أردني; code: JOD; unofficially abbreviated as JD) has been the currency of Jordan since 1950. The dinar is divided into 100 qirsh (also called piastres) or 1000 fulus. Fils are effectively obsolete; however, monetary amounts are still written to three decimal places representing fils. It is pegged to the US dollar.
The Central Bank of Jordan commenced operations in 1965 and became the sole issuer of Jordanian currency, in place of the Jordan Currency Board.
