Selling Nine Dinars for Ten

Question
Is it permissible to sell (9) dinars for (10) dinars considering that it is not measured by volume or weight and that the same type is involved, thus the sale can be completed by immediate exchange?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: This is usury; because it is an exchange of the same kind, so equality is a must, and paper is considered equivalent to gold and silver, thus it takes its ruling, and equality is required. And God knows best.
