KhunBENQ Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 July 1997? That was just the start of the big Thai Baht crash (Asian crisis). Rate in July jumped to 50. Peak rates were in January 1998. Highest I can see is 90.67 (currency market). 105 must have been very briefly, intra day? http://fxtop.com/en/historical-exchange-rates-graph-zoom.php?C1=GBP&C2=THB&A=1&DD1=01&MM1=01&YYYY1=1997&DD2=31&MM2=12&YYYY2=1998&LARGE=1&LANG=en&VAR=0&MM1M=0&MM3M=0&MM1Y=0&LOG= What's your source?

KhunBENQ Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) Consistent with what xe.com says. 90.57 on Jan 12, 1998. https://www.xe.com/currencytables/?from=GBP&date=1998-01-12 30.7 for DM (Deutschmark) on this day is equivalent to 60.04 for the EUR. Today's rate 38.76. Edited July 18, 2018 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
