With 1 Kuwaiti dinar purchasing 3.26 US dollars (or conversely, US$1 equating to 0.31 Kuwaiti dinars), its position is influenced by Kuwait’s prominence as a major oil exporter, situated between Saudi Arabia and Iraq. 

The dinar’s history includes an initial link to the British pound, later shifting to an undisclosed currency basket.

2. Bahraini Dina

The Bahraini dinar (BHD) follows closely as the second-strongest currency worldwide. By exchanging 1 Bahraini dinar, you receive 2.65 US dollars (or US$1 equals 0.38 Bahraini dinars).

Bahrain, an island nation off the Saudi Arabian coast, generates significant wealth from oil and gas exports. 

This currency, introduced in 1965, is pegged to the US dollar.

3. Omani Rial

Claiming the third spot is the Omani rial (OMR), with 1 Omani rial obtaining 2.60 US dollars (or US$1 equals 0.38 Omani rials). 

Oman, located at the Arabian Peninsula’s tip between the UAE and Yemen, derives its prosperity from oil and gas exports. 

The Omani rial, introduced in the 1970s, is anchored to the US dollar.

4. Jordanian Dinar

The fourth-strongest currency globally is the Jordanian dinar (JOD). 

For 1 Jordanian dinar, you can acquire 1.41 US dollars (or US$1 equals 0.71 Jordanian dinars). 

Jordan, a landlocked Middle Eastern nation, possesses economic differences due to lesser reliance on oil and gas exports. 

It entered circulation in 1950, pegged to the US dollar.

5. British Pound

The British pound (GBP) takes the fifth spot, with 1 British pound purchasing 1.28 US dollars (or US$1 equals 0.78 British pounds). 

Ranking sixth in global GDP, Britain introduced the pound in the 1400s before decimalizing it in 1971. 

Unlike others, it’s not pegged but free-floating.

5. Gibraltar Pound

The Gibraltar pound (GIP), jointly fifth-strongest, holds a ratio of 1 Gibraltar pound to 1.28 US dollars (or US$1 equals 0.78 Gibraltar pounds).

Gibraltar, a British territory at Spain’s southern tip, has the GIP pegged at par to the British pound since its 1920s introduction.

7. Cayman Islands Dollar

Securing the sixth rank is the Cayman Islands dollar (KYD), which grants 1 Cayman Islands dollar for 1.20 US dollars (or US$1 equals 0.83 Cayman Islands dollars). 

This British territory in the Caribbean, functioning as a financial hub, established the KYD in the 1970s, pegging it to the US dollar.

8. Swiss Franc

The Swiss franc (CHF) claims seventh place, as 1 Swiss franc exchanges for 1.15 US dollars (or US$1 equals 0.87 Swiss francs). 

Officially used in Switzerland and Liechtenstein, the Swiss franc is a safe-haven currency due to political stability. 

It originated in 1850, transitioning from a brief Euro peg to a free float.

The US dollar (USD) takes the 10th spot, worth precisely 1 against itself.

All other currencies worldwide hold lower value compared to the US dollar. 

Created in the 1700s, it’s legal tender in the USA, its territories, and countries like Ecuador and Zimbabwe. 

As the world’s largest economy by GDP, the US dollar dominates international trade and serves as the primary reserve currency. 

It also sets the price for various commodities like oil, gold, and copper.
