Oddly I have heard of something like this happening, but it was the east german mark. After unification they exchanged the currency 1:1 up to 4000 per person with the west german currency and at higher conversion rates at higher levels. I have friends who were well in east germany prior to reunification who did well because of this exchange. There was considerable debate about the wisdom of doing this at the time. This is very much unlike what could ever happen with the Iraqi dinar.
